The great success of controlled radical polymerizations has encouraged researchers to
develop more facile and robust approaches for surface‐initiated polymerizations (SIPs) to …

Grafting of polymer brush (assembly of polymer chains tethered to the substrate by one end)
is emerging as one of the most viable approach to alter the surface of inorganic …

Cationic polymers are widely used materials in diverse biotechnologies. Subtle variations in
these polymers' properties can change them from exceptional delivery agents to toxic …

Polymer brushes are widely used as versatile surface modifications. However, most of them
are designed to be long-lasting by using nonbiodegradable materials. This generates …

In this study, cationic poly (2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl) trimethylammonium chloride)(PMTAC)
brush surfaces were prepared by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI …

Surface-initiated photoinduced electron transfer-reversible addition–fragmentation chain
transfer (SI-PET-RAFT) provides a light-dependent tool to synthesize polymer brushes on …

Here we describe a facile approach to preparing cationic bottlebrush brush polymers via
sequential surface‐initiated (SI) ring‐opening metathesis polymerization and SI activators …

The unique features of poly [2‐(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate](PDMAEMA), such as its
sensitivity to external stimuli like pH and the presence of tertiary amine groups that can be …

Biofoulants can adhere to multiple surfaces, degrading the performance of medical devices
and industrial facilities and/or causing nosocomial infection. The surface immobilization of …

Inexpensive, biodegradable and antibacterial nanofibers were developed through graft-
quaternization double modification of chitosan (CS) as a potential substitute for those from …
