Patent ID: 11820868

Abstract:
In some aspects, the present disclosure pertains to multi-arm polymers that comprise a core and a plurality of polymer segments having a first end that is covalently attached to the core and (a) a second end comprising a moiety that comprises a reactive end group, wherein the polymer segments comprise one or more hydrophilic aprotic NMP-polymerizable monomers, and wherein the reactive multi-arm polymer comprises nitroxide radicals or (b) a second end comprising a moiety that comprises an alkoxyamine group, wherein the core is a polyol residue, and wherein the polymer segments comprise one or more NMP-polymerizable monomers. In some aspects, the present disclosure pertains to a multifunctional alkoxyamine molecule comprising a core and a plurality of alkoxyamine groups covalently attached to the core, wherein the core is a polyol residue.
