Hydrogen bonding can promote the controlled radical polymerization of 2-vinyl pyridine, and the monomer activating effect is elucidated for the first time.
A novel strategy for preparing block copolymers with semifluorinated alternating copolymers as macroinitiators was established by photocontrolled iodine-mediated RDRP under irradiation with blue LED light at room temperature.
Silk fibroin films were modified with zwitterionic and hydrophilic brush-like polymers via surface-initiated ATRP, resulting in surfaces that reduced protein adsorption and cell attachment.
