Designing effective antifog coatings poses challenges in resisting physical and chemical damage, with persistent susceptibility to decomposition in aggressive environments. As their robustness is dictated by physicochemical structural features, precise control through unique fabrication strategies is crucial. To address this challenge, a novel method for crafting nanoscale antifog films with simultaneous directional growth and cross–linking is presented, utilizing solid‐state continuous assembly of polymers via ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (ssCAPROMP). A new amphiphilic copolymer (specified as macrocross–linker) is designed by incorporating polydimethylsiloxane, poly(2‐(methacryloyloxy)ethyl) trimethylammonium chloride (PMETAC), and polymerizable norbornene (NB) pendant groups, allowing ssCAPROMP to produce antifog films under ambient conditions. This novel approach results in distinctive surface and molecular characteristics. Adjusting water‐absorption and nanoscale assembly parameters produced ultra‐thin (≤100 nm) antifog films with enhanced durability, particularly against strong acidic and alkaline environments, surpassing commercial antifog glasses. Thickness loss analysis against external disturbances further validated the stable surface‐tethered chemistries introduced through ssCAPROMP, even with the incorporation of minimal content of cross–linkable NB moieties (5 mol%). Additionally, a potential zwitter‐wettability mechanism elucidates antifog observations. This work establishes a unique avenue for exploring nanoengineered antifog coatings through facile and robust surface chemistries.
