Abstract
Recent years have seen big steps forward in the fields of polymer production and composite making, thanks to the development of new chemical and electrocoagulation techniques. This abstract gives a short summary of these new developments and goes into great detail about how they can be used. Chemical production of polymers has been an important part of materials science for a long time because it lets scientists precisely control the structure and features of polymers. Recent technical progress in this area has mostly been about speeding up reactions, controlling polymerization routes, and making synthesis processes more scalable. Controlled radical polymerization techniques like atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization have changed the way polymers are designed and made it possible to make complex macromolecular structures with a level of accuracy that has never been seen before. At the same time, electrocoagulation processes have become an interesting option for making composites and synthesizing polymers. Researchers have a lot of control over the shape and makeup of polymers by using electrical methods. Electrocoagulation makes it easier to make functionalized polymers and hybrid materials that have specific qualities, such as better electrical conductivity, temperature stability, and dynamic strength. Electrochemical casting methods also make it possible to make thin films and layers that are the exact thickness and consistency needed. This opens up new ways to make devices and change the surface of things. These technological advances are helping a lot of different areas, as shown in the in-depth application studies in this brief. Chemical and electrocoagulation methods are very useful in making composites and polymers. They can be used in a wide range of industries, from medicinal uses like drug delivery systems and tissue engineering scaffolds to industrial uses in the car, aircraft, and electronics industries. Adding new methods for characterizing materials, like spectroscopy, imaging, and rheology, has also made it possible to get a lot of information.
