For silica-supported ATRP polymerizations as described in ref 19 residual copper concentrations in the polymer solution, following catalyst settling for 90 h at room temperature and under a nitrogen atmosphere prior to solution removal by cannula, are measured to be 110 ppm by ICP-AES as described here. This, based on a conversion of 91% over 315 min, equates to 360 ppm of copper in polymer.
