Atom-transfer radical polymerization where the activation step involves direct atom or group transfer.
Note: ATRP is sometimes used as a synonym for ISET-ATRP. The term ISET-ATRP can be used to specify that the mechanism of ATRP involves direct atom or group transfer as distinct from single electron transfer followed by atom or group transfer or
OSET-ATRP.
