Functional, micropatterned and multicomponent polymer brush surfaces were rapidly fabricated using base-catalyzed thiol–isocyanate “click” reactions, by a team of US Scientists.
The team led by Derek Patton at the University of Southern Mississippi, USA, demonstrated thiol–NCO click chemistry can be used as a modular platform for rapid and robust fabrication of highly functional, multicomponent surfaces. The team expect that this approach can be extended to a broad range of surfaces, including three-dimensional particle substrates.
