Abstract:
Poly(methyl methacrylate) grafted imogolite clay nanotubes were fabricated via activators regenerated by electron transfer for atom transfer radical polymerization (ARGET ATRP) by designing a water-soluble amphiphilic ATRP initiator that can adsorb onto imogolite surface in an aqueous solution.
