One-step chemical functionalization of polyethylene surfaces via diarylcarbene insertion

Three diarylcarbene derivatives with reactive groups were synthesized and used to graft functional groups onto a plasma-modified polyethylene surface via one-step carbene insertion. The modification is observable spectroscopically, and this one-step strategy provides facile and efficient tool to mod...
