  • Inimer-containing random copolymers and crosslinked copolymer films for dense polymer brush growth
    Patent number: 10106699
    Abstract: Crosslinkable random copolymers comprising atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiators and crosslinked copolymer films formed from the copolymers are provided. The random copolymers, which are polymerized from one or more alkyl halide functional inimers and one or more monomers having a crosslinkable functionality, are characterized by pendant ATRP initiating groups and pendant crosslinkable groups.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 30, 2014
    Date of Patent: October 23, 2018
    Assignee: Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation
