<i>Absolut</i> “copper catalyzation perfected”; robust living polymerization of NIPAM: <i>Guinness</i> is good for SET-LRP

Abstract

The controlled polymerization of <italic>N</italic>-isopropyl acrylamide (NIPAM) is reported in a range of international beers, wine, ciders and spirits utilizing Cu(0)-mediated living radical polymerization (SET-LRP).
