Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of functional core, star polymers via RAFT polymerization for drug delivery applications.
TL;DR: In vitro studies revealed that the doxorubicin-conjugated star Poly(oligoethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate had a level of cytotoxicity comparable to that found for free doxorbicin, and efficient cell uptake of the star polymers was confirmed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of various glycopolymer architectures via RAFT polymerization: from block copolymers to stars.
TL;DR: Well-defined linear poly(acryloyl glucosamine) (PAGA) exhibiting molar masses ranging from 3 to 120 K and low polydispersities have been prepared via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization (RAFT) in aqueous solution without recourse to protecting group chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Well-defined glycopolymers from RAFT polymerization: Poly(methyl 6-O-methacryloyl-α-D-glucoside) and Its Block Copolymer with 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate

TL;DR: The glycomonomer methyl 6-Omethacryloyl-α-d-glucoside was obtained in good yield and its structure confirmed by 1H−1H and 1H −13C correlation NMR spectroscopy as discussed by the authors, which was obtained by reversible addition−fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization of the unprotected monomer was performed directly in aqueous solution using (4-cyanopentanoic acid)-4-dithiobenzoate as the chain transfer agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polystyrene comb polymers built on cellulose or poly(styrene-co-2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate) backbones as substrates for the preparation of structured honeycomb films
TL;DR: In this article, two different types of comb polymer backbones were prepared, based on either modified cellulose or statistical poly(styrene-co-2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate) backbones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled polymerization of acrylates and methacrylates
TL;DR: In this paper, free radical free-radical techniques are used to polymerize methacrylates and acryls in a variety of media, ranging from bulk polymerized optically transparent materials to paints and surface coatings.
