Abstract
A polymerization process comprising: heating a mixture comprised of a free radical initiator, a stable free radical agent, at least one polymerizable monomer compound, and optionally a solvent, to form a polymer with a high monomer to polymer conversion and a narrow polydispersity, wherein said polymer is comprised of a covalently bound free radical initiator fragment at one end and a covalently bound stable free radical compound at the other end of the polymer, and wherein said stable free radical agent has high thermal, acidic, and photochemical stability.
