Bridging Polymer Brushes and Coatings Through Ultra‐Thick Growth by Surface‐Initiated Photoiniferter Polymerization

Bridging the gap between polymer brushes and bulk‐like coatings remains a major challenge in the development of functional surface‐grafted materials. Here, we demonstrate that surface‐initiated photoiniferter‐mediated polymerization (SI‐PIMP) enables the controlled synthesis of ultra‐high molecular weight (UHMW) polyme...

Dynamic Diketoenamine Crosslinking Unlocks Vinyl Polymer Vitrimers From β-Triketone Chemistry.

Covalent adaptable networks (CANs) offer a compelling strategy to unite the mechanical robustness of thermosets with the reprocessability of thermoplastics, yet achieving simultaneous durability, processability, and true recyclability remains challenging. We introduce diketoenamine (DKE) vitrimers derived from β-triket...
