Hydrophilic polymers, polymer brushes chain transfer

Schematic depiction of two methods to prepare polymer brushes via Langmuir-Blodgett transfer, (a) LB transfer of amphiphilic diblock copolymers to a hydrophobic interface, (b) LB transfer of a lipid monolayer, of which some lipids are cormected to a hydrophilic polymer chain, to a surface coated with an opposite lipid monolayer.
