Other polymerization methods such as coordination polymerization," " surface electro-initiated emulsion polymerization," radiation-induced graft polymerization (RIGP)," surface thiol-lactam-initiated radical polymerization (TLIRP)" and LbL click grafting" have been employed to graft polymers from CNT surfaces.

Finally, Lecomte and coworkers reported the synthesis of mikto-arm star-shaped aliphatic polyesters by implementing a strategy based on click chemistry (Fig. 36) [162]. Firstly, the polymerization of sCL was initiated by a diol bearing an alkyne function. The chain-ends were protected from any further undesired reaction by the esterification reaction with acetyl chloride. The alkyne was then reacted with 3-azidopropan-l-ol. The hydroxyl function located at the middle of the chain was then used to initiate the ROP of sCL and y-bromo-s-caprolactone. Finally, pendant bromides were reacted successfully with sodium azide and then with N, N-dimethylprop-2-yn-l-amine to obtain pendant amines. Under acidic conditions, pendant amines were protonated and the polymer turned out to exhibit amphiphilic properties.
