I've noticed a week or so ago that this page contained false and misleading information and has typographical errors. I intend to invest some time working on this page. In particular the section on the Mechanism contains false information and the Applications section seems confusing to me. Suggestions on my edits, as they appear are welcome.

Update: I have begun making these corrections / additions. AussieScientist (talk) 20:52, 3 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In figure 4 of the article the name of the first substance in the second row is methacrylac acide not acrylic acide — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.66.101.109 (talk) 01:39, 3 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, don't have time now, but would be good to include reference to original paper: Chiefari J, Chong YK, Ercole F, Krstina J, Jeffery J, Le TPT, Mayadunne RTA, Meijs GF, Moad CL, Moad G, Rizzardo E, Thang SH MACROMOLECULES 31 (16): 5559-5562 AUG 11 1998

* Done! It still needs a mechanism etc., though. Dflanagan 17:27, 25 March 2006 (UTC) [reply]

jetaxe No worries I added a mechanism i whipped up in chemdraw...

The Wikimedia Foundation information team has received a complaint from the originator of that scheme, specifically that it was copied without permission. Copyright is very important to Wikipedia, so I have removed the mechanism. Please be careful not to violate copyright when adding material to Wikipedia.

Perhaps a rather minor point I feel, but would it not be better to move this page to Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer and have this page a redirect there? I just feel that having the full name generally looks better on a page, rather than a first-line explanation of the abbreviation. The same would be true of ATRP_(chemistry), I'm sure there would be others but these are the two I've noticed so far. Mothball (talk) 12:33, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I somewhat agree. Is there a discussion page where such things can be determined. I think it would be best if the different methods were named after the common abbreviation, eg. RAFT-page is Reversible Addition-Fragmentation chain Transfer. 77.212.171.42 (talk) 20:24, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Citing: "Using a multifuntional CTA can..." What is a CTA??? No link nor any wiki entry within chemistry on that. Unless its Cellulosetriacetate, which I would find strange. 77.212.171.42 (talk) 20:24, 22 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
