This review encompasses the fundamentals of kinetics of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). ATRP is a versatile reversible-deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) technique, frequently utilized to synthesize advanced functional materials. Detailed mechanistic investigations over the past two decades allowed for an in-depth understanding of the underlying processes and rational design of the reaction conditions. Various aspects of ATRP kinetics are reviewed such as initiation modes, methods allowing to decrease catalyst concentration, influence of the initiator, catalyst (transition metal, ligand, counterion), solvent, additives, type of monomer, and effect of temperature and pressure. Techniques utilized to determine kinetic parameters of catalytic systems are discussed. Finally, guidelines for synthesis of polymers with targeted architectures, predetermined molecular weights, narrow molecular weight distributions, and high retained chain end functionality are presented.

“…Several groups have recently demonstrated the advantages of using continuous flow reactors in polymer synthesis . Polymerizations that have very fast kinetics or are highly exothermic have benefited from the efficient mixing ability and heat exchange capabilities of flow reactors. Controlled radical polymerizations have also been performed under flow conditions allowing for the synthesis of libraries of polymers with control over molecular weight and low dispersities .…”

Controlled radical polymerizations have significantly impacted the field of polymer science by facilitating the synthesis of polymers with greater control over molecular weight, structure, and dispersity (Ð). As these synthetic techniques continue to evolve, more degrees of control can be realized via external regulation. Recent work has demonstrated external regulation of a controlled radical polymerization process with light using a photoredox Ir‐catalyst. While light offers many advantages as a stimulus for polymerization, scaling up presents unique challenges such as shallow and uneven penetration of light through the reaction medium, which negatively impacts the rate of polymerization. This work addresses some of the challenges associated with scaling up light‐mediated controlled radical polymerizations by employing a continuous flow microreactor and selecting appropriate reactor materials for oxygen sensitive reactions. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
