Abstract
The invention provides polymers, methods of preparing polymers, and compositions that include polymers, wherein said polymers include a plurality of two-carbon repeating units in a polymer chain, wherein one or more of the two-carbon repeating units of the polymer chain have a substituent that is covalently bonded to a semifluorinated alkyl ethoxy moiety, and the semifluorinated alkyl ethoxy moiety is attached to the polymer chain substituent through an ester, amide, ketone, carbamate, amine, or other suitable linking group. The polymers can be used to provide antifouling coatings.
