The research activity of the group concerns the synthesis and characterization of nanostructured polymer materials. In particular, it focuses on the mechanistic investigation of polymerization reactions for the synthesis of polymers having controlled microstructure as well as on the study of structure-properties relationships. Moreover, we are interested in the design and synthesis, via sustainable catalysis, of polymers derived from molecules obtained from industrial waste and/or renewable sources.
