Abstract
The cover image is based on the Article Polyurethanes by ring-opening polymerization initiated from alcohol moiety-tethering acylazide by Yosuke Akae and Patrick Theato, https://doi.org/10.1002/pol.20240092. The cover image by Yosuke Akae shows the unique utility of the orthogonal reagent by using the analogy of Japanese archery (Kyudo). The reagent is able to play a role as (1) initiator of ring-opening polymerization to give polyester (an arrow), and (2) AB-type monomer to afford polyurethane (a bow). When both are combined (bow and arrow are completed), a unique polyurethane structure, which has been difficult to be addressed by other method, is easily synthesized. The player depicted as a shadow is the author himself in the background image of Japanese castle.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Polymer Research provides a forum for the prompt publication of articles concerning the fundamental and applied research of polymers. Its great feature lies in the diversity of content which it encompasses, drawing together results from all aspects of polymer science and technology.
As polymer research is rapidly growing around the globe, the aim of this journal is to establish itself as a significant information tool not only for the international polymer researchers in academia but also for those working in industry. The scope of the journal covers a wide range of the highly interdisciplinary field of polymer science and technology.
