Late-metal catalysts for ethylene homo- and copolymerization
Article Abstract:
The authors review the publications on the polyolefins, the fastest-growing segments of the polymer industry. The topics of interest include catalyst families based on the chelating nitrogen-based ligands, late metal catalysts and the effect of catalyst syntheses, structures, activities and chain-grown mechanisms on the structures of the resulting polymers.

Precise control of polyolefin stereochemistry using single-site metal catalysts
Article Abstract:
The author reviews the publications on the correlation between polymer physical properties and its main-chain stereochemistry. The topics of interest include the single-site catalysts with the metal center and their ability to control molecular weight, molecular weight distribution and the comonomer incorporation and the mechanical and structural studies of these molecular systems.
