The special issue of Monatshefte für Chemie titled “Functional polymers: chemistry, light, and applications in memoriam Wolfgang Kern” is now available & contains an obituary for Prof. Kern, as well as 21 articles on polymer chemistry and technology. link.springer.com/journal/706/...
New work from @tugraz.bsky.social: Lewis base/oxirane combinations as catalysts for transesterification and ROP of caprolactone. is there carbenoid catalytic activity involved? doi.org/10.1007/s007... follow up of doi.org/10.1002/adsc...
New @chemrxiv.org - a very basic study on the influence of the alcohol's acidity on organo-base catalyzed carbamate formation from aliphatic isocyanates (under solvent-free conditions). doi.org/10.26434/che...

We @tugraz.bsky.social disclosed a modular and inexpensive method of generating carbenoid reactivity in situ. Azoles & oxiranes catalyze the benzoin condensation. O2 exclusion is unnecessary. Utility is demonstrated by making a thermoset from the glycidylether of vanillin. doi.org/10.1002/adsc...
There's no need for thiols anymore! 😁
Hot lithography with formulations based on novel photobases, alcohols, and acrylates is disclosed in Mater. Horiz. doi.org/10.1039/D5MH...
Mark your calendars! The next YPRA (Young Polymer Researchers Austria) meeting will be held in Leoben from June 29 to July 1, 2026. Visit the website for more information. ypra.at/frontend/ind...
@chemrxiv.org you can find work on Lewis base/oxirane combinations acting as a catalytic system in the glycolysis of poly(ethylene terephthalate) and the ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone
