Graft copolymers are a type of polymer that consists of a main chain, or backbone, with one or more side chains, known as grafts, attached to it. These side chains can be made from different types of monomers, allowing for a variety of properties and functionalities. Graft copolymers are used in various applications, including coatings, adhesives, and biomedical materials. The unique structure of graft copolymers enables them to combine the characteristics of both the backbone and the grafts. This versatility makes them valuable in industries such as plastics, textiles, and medicine, where tailored properties are essential for specific uses.
