Silica-supported lanthanide silylamides for methyl methacrylate polymerisation: controlled grafting induces controlled reactivity.
Lanthanide silylamides were grafted onto non-porous silica dehydroxylated at various temperatures, and the surface species nature and relative distribution were correlated with MMA polymerisation activity and selectivity.
