Current status of controlled/living radical polymerization (IUPAC recommends a term reversible deactivation radical polymerization),  including atom transfer radical polymerization, nitroxide mediated polymerization and reversible activation fragmentation chain transfer polymerization as well as  various degenerative transfer processes will be discussed. Special emphasis will be on mechanistic understanding of new catalytic/initiating systems. Some potential applications of materials prepared by controlled radical polymerization will be presented.
