Mechanochemically induced methods are commonly used for the depolymerization of polymers, including plastic and agricultural wastes. So far, these methods have rarely been used for polymer synthesis. Compared to conventional polymerization in solutions, mechanochemical polymerization offers numerous advantages such as less or no solvent consumption, the accessibility of novel structures, the inclusion of co-polymers and post-modified polymers, and, most importantly, the avoidance of problems posed by low monomer/oligomer solubility and fast precipitation during polymerization. Consequently, the development of new functional polymers and materials, including those based on mechanochemically synthesized polymers, has drawn much interest, particularly from the perspective of green chemistry. In this review, we tried to highlight the most representative examples of transition-metal (TM)-free and TM-catalyzed mechanosynthesis of some functional polymers, such as semiconductive polymers, porous polymeric materials, sensory materials, materials for photovoltaics, etc.
机械化学诱导法通常用于聚合物的解聚，包括塑料和农业废弃物。到目前为止，这些方法很少用于聚合物合成。与传统的溶液聚合相比，机械化学聚合具有许多优点，如溶剂消耗少或无溶剂消耗、可获得新型结构、可包含共聚物和后改性聚合物，最重要的是，可避免聚合过程中单体/低聚物溶解度低和快速沉淀所带来的问题。因此，新型功能聚合物和材料的开发，包括基于机械化学合成聚合物的那些，引起了广泛关注，特别是从绿色化学的角度。在这篇综述中，我们试图突出一些功能聚合物（如半导体聚合物、多孔聚合物材料、传感材料、光伏材料等）无过渡金属（TM）和TM催化机械合成的最具代表性的例子。
