Solution polymerization involves dissolving the monomer and catalyst in a solvent, which allows for better control of the reaction conditions and the final polymer properties. This method enables precise control over polymer molecular weight, distribution, and functionality, making it suitable for applications where specific material properties are required. The controlled environment in solution polymerization also facilitates the handling of reactions that may produce side products or require special conditions. However, the use of solvents increases the complexity of the process and may necessitate additional steps for solvent recovery or removal .
