A Comparative Study of Polymethacrylates Featuring Discrete Oligo(ethylene sulfide), Oligo(ethylene sulfoxide), and Oligo(ethylene sulfone) as Side Chains for Antifouling Applications
Thioethers can be oxidized to sulfoxides and sulfones, and such transformation enables facile access to side chains with different extents of oxidation for creating multifunctional sulfur-containing polymers. Herein, a series of discrete oligo(ethylene sulfide)-derived monomers and their corresponding oxidized monome...
