1.3. Grafting methods. Most of these studies have focused on surface modification by means of either ‗‗grafting-to‘‘ or ‗‗grafting-from‘‘ techniques [7-14] . ‗‗Grafting-to‘‘ involves the bonding of a preformed end- functionalized polymer chains to the reactive surface groups on the substrate. The limitation in this technique is that the attachment of a small number of chains significantly hinders diffusion of additional polymer chains to the surface, thereby leading to very low grafting density. In the grafting-from technique, initiator species on the substrate surface are used to initiate polymerization upon exposure to a monomer solution under appropriate conditions, so that high grafting density can be achieved. 1.4. ATRP. ATRP or atom transfer radical polymerization is an example of a living polymerization or a controlled/living radical polymerization (CRP). Like its counter part, ATRA or atom transfer radical addition, it is a means of forming carbon-carbon bond through transition metal catalyst. As the name implies, the atom transfer step is the key step in the reaction responsible for uniform polymer chain growth. ATRP (or transition metal-mediated living radical polymerization) was independently discovered by Mitsuo Sawamoto [15] and by Krzysztof Matyjaszewski and Jin-Shan Wang in 1995. [16] This is a typical ATRP reaction: The uniformed polymer chain growth, which leads to low polydispersity, stems from the transition metal based catalyst. This catalyst provides an equilibrium between active, and therefore propagating, polymer and an inactive form of the polymer; known as the dormant form. Since the dormant state of the polymer is vastly preferred in this equilibrium, side reactions are suppressed. This equilibrium in turn lowers the concentration of propagating radicals, therefore suppressing unintentional termination and controlling molecular weights. ATRP reactions are very robust in that they are tolerant of many functional groups like allyl, amino, epoxy, hydroxy and vinyl groups present in either the monomer or the initator. ATRP methods are also advantageous due to the ease of preparation, commercially available and inexpensive catalysts (copper complexes), pyridine based ligands and initiators (alkyl halides). [17] 13
