Hairy polymers from MWNTS: Surface-initiated polymerization (SIP) of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and styrene (S) has been performed from the surfaces of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) by using a covalently attached atom-transfer radical initiator. The initiator is grafted to the surface of the MWNTs through carboxy groups. Hairy homo, block, and copolymers consisting of PS and PMMA brushes can then be grown from the surface of the MWNTs (see scheme).
