“…While the groundwork has been laid by a body of impressive work from previous researchers, there remains room for improvement to help pave the road for MPBs to transition into industrial application and scale-up. For example, recent developments in polymer brushes synthesis, including oxygen tolerance [60,81], metal-free polymerization [82], and external regulation [81,83,84,[174][175][176][177][178][179][180] have the potential to make MPB fabrication more user friendly than ever before. Newly described orthogonal approaches in solution will increase synthetic precision: in contrast to sequential SI-FRP/SI-RDRP, orthogonal polymerization techniques and "click" reactions do not compete for the same initiating sites and improve control over grafting ratios.…”
