Precipitation polymerization is a heterogeneous polymerization process that begins initially as a homogeneous system in the continuous phase, where the monomer and initiator are completely soluble, but upon initiation, the formed polymer is insoluble and thus precipitates.
Most precipitation polymerizations are achieved through radical polymerization. Other polymerization mechanisms like ionic polymerization can also be applied for precipitate polymerization. In particular, controlled/living radical precipitation polymerizations (CRPPs) such as atom transfer radical precipitation polymerization (ATRPP) and addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) precipitation polymerization ...
