Meter-Long Multiblock Copolymer Microfibers Via Interfacial Bioorthogonal Polymerization

High‐molecular‐weight multiblock copolymers are synthesized as robust polymer fibers via interfacial bioorthogonal polymerization employing the rapid cycloaddition of s‐tetrazines with strained trans‐cyclooctenes. When cell‐adhesive peptide is incorporated in the tetrazine monomer, the resulting pro...

Zusammenfassung:High‐molecular‐weight multiblock copolymers are synthesized as robust polymer fibers via interfacial bioorthogonal polymerization employing the rapid cycloaddition of s‐tetrazines with strained trans‐cyclooctenes. When cell‐adhesive peptide is incorporated in the tetrazine monomer, the resulting protein‐mimetic polymer fibers provide guidance cues for cell attachment and elongation.
