USTUTT has made significant progress in the last year of the MEAsureD project.

An Efficient control over molecular weights of the catalyst binder (PWN) was achieved by using RAFT polymerization technique and radical transfer agent. The reduction of molecular weight of the binder stand for better processability by the catalyst ink preparation and increased the efficiency of the phosphonation reaction by the synthesis of PWN from 46 up […]
