Template polymerization region

Template polymerization region (reactive terminal groups)... 

Primary atomic (CADPs) or molecular (CMDPs) information is defined and stored in the initiator core or seed. This information that includes its size, shape, multiplicity (Ate), and chemistry (valency) is presented in an exo-fashion and communicated to a template polymerization region, namely,... 

In the context of utilizing surfactant assemblies for building nanostructured polymeric materials, one other approach that deserves mention is the polymerization of standard monomers partitioned into the hydrophobic regions of surfactant aggregates one in particular that has received a lot of attention is vesicle templating [84]. The basic idea in this approach is to generate vesicles using appropriate surfactants and then to solubilize standard monomers, such as styrene, within the... 

Messenger RNA, synthesized in the living cell by the action of an enzyme that carries out the polymerization of ribonucleotides on a DNA template region that carries the information for the primary sequence of amino acids in a structural protein. It is a ribonucleotide copy of the deoxynucleotide sequences in the primary genetic material. 

Nanostructured materials can be synthesized from the so-called top down or bottom-up approach. In the first approach, features at the micron (or submicron) length scale are created on a substrate by masking and exposing selected regions of a radiation sensitive layer (typically a polymeric photoresist) to a UV source. This exposure is followed by various chemical treatments and mechanical steps to obtain the desired spatial pattern on a substrate. However, the feature sizes that can be obtained with this approach are limited to the length scale of the wavelength of the radiation employed. If features at the nanometer scale are desired, one must start from the bottom (i.e., use individual molecules or clusters) and assemble templates that will impart the nanostructure to the desired material.
