High-pressure living radical polymerizations have proven to be an excellent tool for the synthesis of extraordinarily high molecular weight polymers with well-defined structures. The polymerization technique was applied to surface-graft polymerization providing polymer brushes with long chains grafted on silicon wafers and silica particles. Thus prepared spherical polymer brushes formed colloidal crystals with extremely long interparticle distances, and also were utilized to systematically investigate the physiological properties of polymer brush-afforded fine particles.
