In this study, we compare poly(glycerol monomethacrylate) (PGMA) of different chain lengths and architectures (linear two-arm) with poly(poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate) (PPEGMA) as an alternative polymer platform for the synthesis a new generation protein–polymer conjugates. Mono- two-arm functional atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) initiators were designed selectivel...

w       ater born poly(styrene-butyl acrylate)/clay nanocomposite latexes were synthesized by a novel initiating system of activators generated by   electron transfer (aget) in a system of atom transfer radical polymerization   (atrp). initially, the clay was swelled in a mixture of styrene, butyl acrylate,   and hexadecane. the mixture was then sonicated to obtain a stable miniemulsion. to   s...
