The faster the initiation, the fewer terminations and transfers, the more consistent the number of propagating chains leading to narrow molecular weight distributions.

Polymers
There are many different types of polymers. They are used in our everyday lives. The most famous reference is to the graduate.

Polymers Synthesis
The two main ways to synthesize polymers are by step-growth and chain-growth polymerizations. The difference between them are as follows.

Step-Growth Polymerizations
Step-growth polymerization...

Chain-Growth Polymerizations
Chain-growth... A type of chain-growth polymerization is ATRP.

This is a typical ATRP reaction:

creating high quality images: settings for chem draw:

1.) file --> adopt document settings from --> ACS Document 1996

2.) once structures are drawn, Object --> object settings --> bold length: 0.03 and line width: 0.015

3.) normalize bond lengths and angles: stucture --> clean up structure

4.) align structures/equation: object --> align.

to make a list, as shown above, need to insert a "line break" (arrow at top)

Polymer Characterization
There are many ways in which polymers are characterized.

Equations
$$\frac{numerator}{denominator} $$

if you are typing greek letters in your text, greek letters are at the bottom of the editing page. pull down menu --> greek β λ Σ

However, in an equation, the greek letters must be spelled out.

$$f_{av} = \frac{\sigma N_i \sdot f_i}{\rho N_i}$$

(underscore means a subscript)

Tables
type your tables across

necessary for last vertical line before brackets to place table immediately after text and not at end of Wikipedia page.
