| Functional polymers with complex architectures, including telechelic polymers, star polymers and brush polymers, were successfully synthesized by combination of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and click reactions. All click reactions were fast and highly efficient. The distribution of the functional groups in the telechelic polymers was determined by the liquid adsorption chromatography. During the syntheses of star and brush polymers, the grafting efficiency was determined by several factors, including the molecular weight and chemical structure of the azido-terminated linear chains, and the stoichiometry between the azido and alkynyl groups. |
