Articles with covalently attached thiocarbonylthio-containing groups are provided. More specifically, the articles include a solid polymeric substrate with a plurality of thiocarbonylthio-containing groups covalently attached directly to a carbon atom in a polymeric backbone of the solid polymeric substrate. Methods of making the articles with covalently attached thiocarbonylthio-containing are provided. Additionally, methods of using these articles to generate further articles with covalently attached polymeric chains are provided.

Polymeric substrates with attached polymeric chains

An adhesion promoter comprises a reaction product of: a) a polyepoxide; b) an aminosilane represented by the formula HNRR. Rand Rindependently represent &#x2014;Z&#x2014;SiL. Each Z independently represents a divalent linking group having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms, and each L independently represents a hydrolyzable group; and c) an isocyanatosilane represented by the formula O&#x2550;C&#x2550;N&#x2014;Z&#x2014;SiL, wherein Z and L are as previously defined. The adhesion promoter may be used to treat a surface of a substrate such as an abrasive particle, which may be included in a resin-bond abrasive article.

Controlled radical initiators, reaction mixtures containing the controlled radical initiators and various ethylenically unsaturated monomers, polymeric materials formed from the reaction mixtures, crosslinkable compositions containing the polymeric materials, crosslinked compositions formed from the crosslinkable compositions, and articles containing the polymeric materials, the crosslinkable compositions, or the crosslinked compositions are provided. The controlled radical initiators are bis-dithiocarbamate or bis-dithiocarbonate compounds having a single carbon between the two dithiocarbamate or dithiocarbonate groups. Also attached to that single carbon is a ketone group.

First articles with covalently attached thiocarbonylthio-containing groups are provided. More specifically, the first articles are a functionalized substrate that contains a solid polymeric substrate with a plurality of thiocarbonylthio-containing groups covalently attached directly to carbon atoms in a polymeric backbone of the solid polymeric substrate. Methods of making the first articles with covalently attached thiocarbonylthio-containing groups are provided. Additionally, second articles and methods of using the first articles to generate second articles with covalently attached polymeric chains are provided.

Novel stress-reducing crosslinking oligomers that have application in dental restoratives, thin films, hardcoats, composites, adhesives, and other uses subject to stress reduction are described. The addition-fragmentation process of crosslinking results in a chain-transfer event that provides novel polymers that may be further functionalized. In addition, the addition-fragmentation oligomer comprises pendent functional groups that bond to a substrate by forming an ionic or covalent bond, or etch the substrate by chemically removing some material from the substrate.

Addition-fragmentation oligomers

Controlled radical initiators that are ketone-containing dithiocarbamate or ketone-containing dithiocarbonate compounds are used to form polymeric materials that have a single polymeric block or multiple polymeric blocks. Reaction mixtures containing controlled radical initiators and various ethylenically unsaturated monomers, polymeric materials formed from the reaction mixtures, crosslinkable compositions containing the polymeric materials, crosslinked compositions formed from the crosslinkable compositions, and articles containing the polymeric materials, the crosslinkable compositions, or the crosslinked compositions are provided.

A pattern article comprising a copolymer having polymerized units derived from a cleavable crosslinking monomer, to which a pattern is imparted by the release of incipient acid from a thermal acid generator or photoacid generator. The selective release of the acid provides a pattern of high crosslink density and low crosslink density as result of the incipient acid cleaving a portion of the crosslinks.
