    Development of advanced nanosized molecularly inprinted polymers via surface-initiatied 'living' radical polymerisation
    (Cranfield University, 2012-01) Ivanova-Mitseva, Petya K.; Piletsky, Sergey A.; Whitcombe, Michael J.; Piletsky, E.
    Surface-initiated photo-iniferter mediated controlled polymerisation was used as a technique for the development of advanced and smart materials. Molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) shell nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesised in this way from PAMAM dendrimers, used as a graftable core, in 2 min irradiation time. Surprisingly the so-synthetised NPs were around 200 nm and had a cubic shape. Cont/d.
