To improve the antifouling property, polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel was successfully grafted with [2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl] dimethyl-(3-sulfopropyl) ammonium hydroxide (MEDSAH) via photoinduced electron transfer–reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization under a 10 W blue (450–460 nm) light-emitting diodes. It is surprising that the reaction could be performed in the presence of oxygen, which meant that the reaction has a great prospect of industrialization. The highest grafting percentage (GP) was 55.77% by adding triethylamine and changed the MEDSAH usage in the absence of oxygen. Thermal gravimetric analysis exhibited that grafted MEDSAH affects the thermal property of PVA hydrogel. Also, there was no influence on the ultraviolet–visible transmittance, and the PVA-g-pMEDSAH hydrogel became hydrophilicity after grafting. Moreover, in vitro cytotoxicity of both PVA and PVA-g-pMEDSAH hydrogel was noncytotoxic according to ISO 10993-2009. The antifouling property of PVA-g-pMEDSAH hydrogel was increased about 53.05%. Thus, the PVA-g-pMEDSAH hydrogel can be an ideal optical biomaterial candidate. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2019 , 136 , 47653.

Gas–liquid–solid (G–L–S) three-phase slug flow provides an efficient pathway to utilize solid catalysts in continuous flow and was adopted in the mesoporous graphite carbon nitride (mpg-C3N4)-catalyzed photoinduced electron/energy transfer reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) in this work. Kinetic studies and chain extension experiments illustrated the realization of reversible deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) and the “easy to scale up” advantage of a continuous-flow reactor as compared to its batch counterpart. The light intensity played an important role on the PET-RAFT polymerization. An increasing amount of photocatalyst favored the monomer conversion within a limited range due to higher light blockage, and the monomer conversion reached a stable level at a lower catalyst concentration when higher light power was applied. When compared with fully continuous flow, the G–L–S slug flow was beneficial to the PET-RAFT polymerization due to the intensified swirling strength and narrower velocity field. Decreasing the gas-to-slurry ratio also led to narrower velocity distribution, which favored the polymerization as well. Moreover, the polymerization rates remained stable in multiple recycles, demonstrating that the present G–L–S slug flow was a reliable and easy processing approach for utilizing the solid catalyst.

Lead halide perovskite has currently emerged as a research hotspot in the field of photocatalysis due to its exceptional photovoltaic characteristics. Despite its potential, the susceptibility to degradation under harsh conditions such as light, humidity, and polar solvents poses a significant challenge. To counteract this, a strategy employing silica to shield the perovskite surface is conducted, thereby enhancing its stability. The resulting composite MAPbBr 3 @SiO 2 is then deployed as a photocatalyst in the photoinduced electron/energy transfer reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization of butyl acrylate within polar solvents. The catalytic performance across different RAFT polymerization systems including varying the RAFT reagents, catalyst concentrations, and solvent types is meticulously examined. Remarkably, with a photocatalyst loading of merely 0.004 wt% and under a blue light intensity of 6 mW/cm 2 , over 80% monomer conversion can be achieved in 4 h. Moreover, the molecular weight distribution ( Đ ) consistently remains within the narrow range of 1.0–1.2 across all experimental setups, which proves the controllable nature of the PET-RAFT process. Owning the advantages of low photocatalyst requirement, compatibility with polar solvents, and narrow molecular weight distribution, PET-RAFT polymerization mediated by MAPbBr 3 @SiO 2 holds promise for scalable manufacturing and industrial-scale applications. Graphical Silica-coated hybrid lead halide perovskite nanocrystals are prepared and applied as photocatalysts in a PET-RAFT polymerization within polar solvents. High monomer conversion rates and polymers with narrow molecular weight distribution can be achieved. The polymerization process is notably efficient and can be conducted with minimal photocatalyst amounts, underscoring the superior efficiency and broad applicability of our novel photocatalyst system.

Photocatalyzed polymerization using organic molecules as catalysts has attracted broad interest because of its easy operation in ambient environments and low toxicity compared with metallic catalysts. In this work, we reported that 4,7-di(thiophen-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (DTBT) can act as an efficient photoredox catalyst for photoinduced electron transfer-reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization under green light irradiation. Well-defined (co)polymers can be obtained using this technique without any additional additives like noble metals and electron donors or acceptors. The living characteristics of polymerization were verified by kinetic study and the narrow dispersity (Đ) of the produced polymer. Excellent chain-end fidelity was demonstrated through chain extension as well. In addition, this technique showed great potential for various RAFT agents and monomers including acrylates and acrylamides.Keywords:organic photoredox catalyst;green light;PET-RAFT polymerization

Hierarchically porous materials are highly valued for their large surface areas and tunable pore architectures, making them promising heterogeneous catalysts for photoinduced electron transfer-reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization. However, the specific influence of pore structure on catalytic performance remains poorly understood. In this study, hierarchically porous conjugated organic polymers (COPs) were synthesized using a silica hard-template method and employed as photocatalysts for PET-RAFT polymerization. Under white LED light irradiation, the effects of template size and concentration on pore structure and photocatalytic performance were systematically investigated. Notably, a silica template with a concentration of 60 mg/mL and a particle size of 300 nm produced a COP with an average pore size of 6.91 nm, which exhibited the best photocatalytic performance. The polymerization rate under these conditions was 2.5 times higher than that of the control. The synergy among micropores, mesopores, and macropores enhanced photocatalytic efficiency by increasing surface area, promoting mass transfer, and improving charge carrier mobility. Spectroscopic and electrochemical analyses further revealed that the optimized pore structure significantly enhances charge carrier dynamics by facilitating charge separation and migration. This structural modulation effectively reduces charge recombination, thereby improving the photocatalytic efficiency in PET-RAFT polymerization. These findings provide valuable insights into the rational design of porous photocatalysts for advanced PET-RAFT systems.

Molecularly imprinted technique (MIT) has proven to be a significant tool in the analyzing area in virtue of its obvious advantages such as specific recognition, favorable stability to high temperature and higher sensitivity. Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) technology has also been receiving enormous attention as a powerful tool in sensing fields. However, sensors based on the combination of MIT and ECL technologies have seldom been reported yet. Herein, we find that Ru(bpy) 3 2+ cannot only work as an efficient catalyst for photo-induced electron transfer–reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization, but also as a sensing probe for ECL sensor. Based on this, we successfully construct ECL sensors via the combination of MIT and ECL techniques. In details, poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) and cross-linked PMAA were synthesized first via a well-controlled PET-RAFT polymerization using Ru(bpy) 3 2+ as catalyst under illumination of visible light with a wavelength of 460 nm, as confirmed by 1 H NMR and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Then, negatively-charged Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) with average sizes of 20 nm were prepared and modified with Ru(bpy) 3 2+ via electrostatic incorporation. MIPs were prepared on the surface of AuNPs using melamine (MEL) as the template via PET-RAFT controlled cross-linking polymerization. The MIPs modified AuNPs (AuNPs-MIPs) were then fixed on the surface of working electrode with Nafion to achieve a solid-state ECL sensing platform employing Ru(bpy) 3 2+ as the ECL probes. The as-prepared sensor showed a wide detection range of 5.0 × 10 –13 − 5.0 × 10 −6 mol/L and a low detection limit of 1.0 × 10 –13 mol/L (S/N ≥ 3) was reached in the detection of MEL. Moreover, further tests for analyzing MEL structural analogues proved that the constructed ECL sensing platform could be utilized to detect various substances via specific recognitions.

To solve the biofouling problem of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel as the artificial cornea, glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) and 2-hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan (HACC) were grafted on the surface of PVA hydrogel via a new method of photoinduced electron transfer—reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization and ring-open reaction. Both attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) confirmed that GMA and HACC were successfully grafted on the surface of PVA hydrogel. A series of experiments to test the hydrophilicity of PVA hydrogel showed that it became hydrophobic due to the introduction of hydrophobic groups after grafting with GMA and HACC. In addition, cytotoxicity in vitro of PVA-g-p(GMA-HACC) hydrogel could be considered as not cytotoxicity according to ISO 10993-5: 2009. The anti-fouling property of hydrogel decreased after grafting with GMA due to the hydrophobic surface, while increased after grafting with HACC due to the steric repulsion of p(GMA-HACC) polymer brush. It’s no doubt that PET-RAFT was a feasible and reliable surface modification method which could be used in many biomolecules due to the excellent advantages.

ZnO–polymer core–shell nanoparticles were successfully prepared using a simple in situ open-to-air PET-RAFT method. The utilization of vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES) modified ZnO NPs as catalysts for polymerization, along with the grafting of polymers onto the ZnO NPs, offers significant antibacterial properties. The cationic monomer methacrylamide guanidine hydrochloride (MAGH) and the glycomonomer 2-methacrylamido glucopyranose (MAG) were grafted onto the ZnO NPs surface, further enhancing the antibacterial properties by promoting contact with bacteria and specific recognition of E. coli FimH proteins, leading to a significant improvement in the antibacterial ability compared with ZnO NPs. By combining the photocatalytic and antibacterial properties of ZnO NPs, the preparation of a core–shell material with good antibacterial properties was successfully achieved, providing a new strategy for the synthesis of antimicrobial materials.

Silicon quantum dots (SiQDs) are explored for the first time as an efficient photocatalyst for visible-light-regulated reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The fluorescence quenching confirmed the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) between SiQDs and RAFT reagents. Besides all features of controlled radical polymerization, the SiQDs catalyzed PET-RAFT polymerization also exhibit good temporal control, high chain-end fidelity, and versatility with diverse monomers. Moreover, amino-functionalized SiQDs can be easily coated on the surface of substrates (silicon wafer) owing to the electrostatic interaction, and play a dual role of polymer–substrate connector and photocatalyst for the surface-initiated PET-RAFT polymerization. The SiQD-coated wafer was also proved to be an efficient recycle photocatalyst for PET-RAFT polymerization.

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel was modified with NIPAAm via a green, efficient, and industrially applicable photo induced electron transfer-reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization catalyzed by organic dye. The hydrophilicity of PVA-g-pNIPAAm became temperature sensitive due to the introduction of pNIPAAm polymer brushes. It was surprising that PVA-g-pNIPAAm became superhydrophilic (WCA = 4.3°) at 25°C while the grafting yield was 39.3%. In addition, no cytotoxic for primary human eyelid fibroblast cells was observed according to ISO 10993.5:2009. Antifouling properties of PVA-g-pNIPAAm were significantly improved due to the increase of surface steric repulsion effect. Drug release property of PVA-g-pNIPAAm was more controllable than PVA hydrogel. Thus, organic dye catalyzed PET-RAFT polymerization could be applied to construct functional surface on biomaterials, and PVA-g-pNIPAAm hydrogel with lower cytotoxic, higher antifouling, and drug release properties had great potential in drug delivery.

In this study, we grafted brush-like CBMA copolymer brushes onto the surface of PVA hydrogel membrane through photo-induced electron transfer–reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization. ATR-FTIR, XPS , AFM , UV–Vis absorption spectra and elemental analysis were adopted to characterize the hydrogels, and equilibrium swelling, water contact angle, vitro cytotoxicity assay, protein adsorption and cells adhesion experiments were used to evaluate the related property of hydrogels. The results of ATR-FTIR and XPS showed that pCBMA was successfully grafted onto the surface of PVA hydrogel membrane. The Ra roughness of hydrogel surface in AFM increased slightly from 5.44 nm to 6.12 nm. Transmittance of the PVA-g-pCBMA hydrogel in the visible range (380 nm-780 nm) was remaining at 91.2%–97.0%. The optimal reaction conditions (CPADB: 1.20 mmol/L, Eosin Y: 0.03 mmol/L and CBMA : 358 mmol/L) were confirmed through control experiments. The equilibrium swelling and water contact angle showed that the swelling ratio increased from 2.06 cm 3 g −1 to 3.65 cm 3 g −1 , while the water contact angle decreased from 45.94° to 18.06° with the increase of grafting ratio (23.92%–55.18%). In vitro cytotoxicity assay by CCK-8 showed that the cells relative viability remained at least 90.55%. Anti-protein adsorption experiment illustrated approximately 57.2% improvement of anti-protein capacity at 37 °C, while cells adhesion experiment also showed about 64.57% improvement of anti-cells capacity. These results revealed the applicability of the oxygen tolerant PET-RAFT mechanism on the PVA modification and it was effective, feasible and non-cytotoxic method to prepare the other functional PVA hydrogel membrane.

Multifunctional hydrogel-based wound dressings have been explored for decades due to their huge potential in multifaceted medical intervention to wound healing. However, it is usually not easy to fabricate a single hydrogel with all of the desirable functions at one time. Herein, a bilayer model with an outer layer for hydrogel wound dressing was proposed. The inner layer (Hm-PNn) was a hybrid hydrogel prepared by N-isopropylacrylamide and chitosan-N-2-hydroxypropyl trimethylammonium chloride (HACC), and the outer layer (PVAo-PAmp) was prepared by polyvinyl alcohols and acrylamide. The two hydrogel layers of the bilayer model were covalently connected with excellent interfacial strength by photoinduced electron/energy transfer-reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (PET-RAFT) polymerization. The outer layer exposed to the ambient environment exhibited good stretchability and toughness, while the inner-layer hydrogel adhered to the skin exhibited excellent softness, antibacterial activity, thermoresponsivity, and biocompatibility. In particular, the inner layer of a hydrogel demonstrated excellent antibacterial capability toward both Staphylococcus aureus as Gram-positive bacteria and Escherichia coli as Gram-negative bacteria. Cell cytotoxicity showed that the cell viability of all Hm-PNn layer hydrogels exceeds 80%, confirming that the hydrogels bear excellent biocompatibility. In vivo experimental results indicated that the Hm-PNn/PVAo-PAmp bilayer hydrogel has a significant effect on the acceleration of wound healing, which was demonstrated in a full-thickness skin defect model showing improved collagen disposition and granulation tissue thickness. With these results, the established multifunctional bilayer hydrogel exhibits potential as an excellent wound dressing for wound healing applications, especially for open and infected traumas.
