Frontal ring-opening metathesis polymerization (FROMP) is a promising energy-efficient approach to fabricate polymeric materials but the characteristic properties of the front are currently controlled primarily by varying the resin composition or the environmental conditions. Here, the authors present an approach to control FROMP of dicyclopentadiene using photochemical methods.
