  • Methods of making polymers and metal-polymer composites
    Patent number: 12163051
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a polymer, polymers and metal-polymer composites produced by the method. The method comprises providing one or more polymerisable monomers and providing a substrate comprising an activated metal surface, the activated metal surface comprising one or more compounds capable of initiating polymerisation of the one or more polymerisable monomers. The method comprises contacting the activated metal surface and the one or more polymerisable monomers to polymerise the one or more polymerisable monomers, thereby producing the polymer.
    Type: Grant
