中文摘要：

前线聚合（Frontal Polymerization，FP）是一种以自身反应热为推动力，通过反应区域连续移动，最终实现整体聚合转化的聚合反应模式。本文综述介绍了前线聚合的定义、反应机理、基本形成条件及主要特点。

英文摘要：

Frontal polymerization is a mode of converting monomer into polymer via a localized exothermic reaction zone that propagates through the coupling of thermal diffusion and the Arrhenius reaction kinetics of an polymerization. The definition, reaction mechanism and prominent characteristics of the frontal polymerization are reviewed in this article. The conditions for the existence of free-radical thermal frontal polymerization are considered.
