Two kinds of ABC-type miktoarm star copolymers, poly(α-methylstyrene)-poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(ethoxyethyl glycidylether) (PMS-PEO-PEEGE) and poly(α-methylstyrene)-poly(ethylene oxide)-polyglycidol (PMS-PEO-PG), were synthesized via a combination of anionic polymerization with ring-opening polymerization. Firstly, The poly(α-methyl styryl lithium) (PMS-Li+) was capped by EEGE to form the functionalized poly(α-methylstyrene) with both an active ω-hydroxyl group and an ω’-ethoxyethyl-protected hydroxyl group. Secondly, the PMS-b-PEO block copolymers, star(PMS-PEO-PEEGE) and star(PMS-PEO-PG) copolymers were obtained by the ring-opening polymerization of EO and EEGE via the variation of the functional end group, respectively. Finally, the ethoxyethyl group on the PEEGE arm was hydrolyzed. The obtained miktoarm star copolymers and intermediates were characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) and size exclusion chromatography (SEC).

Abstract This paper report the synthesis of binary-patterned brushes, combining two distinctive surface initiated-polymerizations (SIP) on the basis of different propagating species: the SI Ring Opening Polymerization (ROP) of L-Lactide (LLA) and SI atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of N,N’-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) on gold surface. First of all, a careful study of surfaceinitiated ROP of L-Lactide from hydroxyl end-group of thiol monolayer on gold surface as catalyzed by metal-free catalyst was carried out. The PLLA brushes synthesis was evaluated using two types of thiol monolayer and revealed the influence of ROP initiator chain length on the final thickness of the PLLA film. Combining the soft lithographic technique, microcontact printing, and the liquid phase deposition, the deposition onto specific micro-domains of both initiators was performed. The growth of PDMAEMA brushes and PLLA brushes was conducted by successive ATRP and ROP.
