 Properties of polymeric materials areinscribed in the chemical structure of the respective polymer. To enrich thepool of synthetically accessible polymers requires new developments in polymersyntheses. Over the years, we have introduced highly efficientpost-polymerization modification protocols that allow the incorporation ofmultiple functional units onto a polymer chain.[1] The development in the fieldis still very intense and dynamic and current challenges are the use ofefficient multi-component reactions in the post-polymerization modificationstep and the synthesis of sequence-controlled multifunctional polymers.

Further,to address the increasing demands in energy storage, we have been focusing onnovel functional polymers, their syntheses and their processing. Inhere,non-conventional synthesis of sulfur-containing polymers leads to solutionprocessable cathode materials for lithium-sulfur batteries.[2]

Insummary, “thinking outside the box” in polymer synthesis and processing canlead to new and promising approaches that enable precision materials rangingfrom the area of smart materials to energy storage. Synthetic routes,possibilities, remaining challenges and opportunities will be discussed.
