Fig. 11. Depolymerization of polymethacrylates made by RAFT polymerization with different monomers, and CTA end-groups. The polymer signal reduces over the course of the reaction (bottom left), the final depolymerization conversion decreases for increasing DPs (bottom middle), and the final depolymerization conversion changes depending on the used solvent (bottom right).
