Overview

The study demonstrates anionic polymerization of a thioether-containing diene, indicating effective modifications for antimicrobial applications.

Key Points

  • The study reveals significant antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.
  • Planned adjustments of MTHD content in copolymers resulted in tunable properties and narrow distributions.
  • In situ NMR kinetics indicated varied reactivities between the cis and trans isomers during polymerization.
  • Post-polymerization modifications allowed for the tailoring of properties, enabling the creation of functional materials.
