“…This approach has been used to make inorganic (TiO 2 , SnO 2 or ZnO) nanorods [102] or CdSe/ZnS quantum dots [538] with PAA-b-PSt, [539] P(AEME-co-328-co-342) [278] or semiconductor (P364 or P365) arms, gold nanoparticles with PSt, [476] PSt-b-P2VP, [198] PDMAEMA, PAA, or PSt, [91] P(340-co-AM) or P(341-co-AM), [239] PPEGA-b-PNIPAM, [217] PMMAb-PNIPAM, [189] or P(DEGMA-co-tBA), P(DEGMA-co-tBA)-b-PGMA, PGMA, PSt [398] grafts, magnetic iron with PNIPAM grafts, [305] silver nanoparticles with PSt grafts, [409] chitosan with PAA grafts, [487] and silicon wafers with NIPAM grafts. [273] Silicon wafers and silica particles have also been modified with multiple layers of an amine-functional polymer, polyethyleneimine or poly(allylamine hydrochloride), respectively, and PAA-bPSSO3Na in a layer-by-layer assembly process.…”
