“…The probable reaction pathway for the formation of a copolymer was revealed by our group using density functional theory (DFT) (Figure S1). 33 1 H NMR and GPC measurements were conducted to analyze the chemical structure and quantify MW and Đ M of the two PLGA− PEG-PLGA triblock copolymers. Đ M is defined as M w /M n , namely, weight-average molecular weight M w over numberaverage molecular weight M n .…”

“…Recent studies have also shown that the use of multinuclear metals systems can be beneficial [19], whilst the use of external stimuli for ROP is an emerging area [20]. Moreover, structure/activity relationships for ROP remain a key topic coupled with the search for the rate determining transition states [21].…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
