Reversible-deactivation radical polymerization
mediated by an organotellurium compound.
Note:
The dominant mechanism of TERP thought to be
degenerative chain-transfer radical polymerization
(DTRP). However, at high temperature conditions or under photochemical irradiation the mechanism may involve
stable-radical-mediated polymerization
(SRMP).
