Abstract
Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) is one of the higher consumed polymers (more than 40 million tons per year) and can only be prepared on an industrial scale by free-radical polymerization (FRP). Several intrinsic limitations of FRP have triggered interest in synthesizing this polymer by reversible deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) methods. Despite the many achievements that have been made, the RDRP of nonactivated monomers, such as vinyl chloride (VC), presents several challenges to the scientific community. Several features of VC make its control by RDRP techniques particularly difficult. The most recent developments on RDRP of VC are critically discussed.
