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...
