Abstract Reactive polymer coatings were synthesized via chemical vapor deposition (CVD) polymerization process. These decouple surface design from bulk properties of underlying materials and provide a facile general route to support thiol‐ene thiol‐yne reactions on variety substrate materials. Through the reported technique, functions can be activated through simple thiol‐terminated molecules such as polyethylene glycols (PEGs) or peptides (GRGDYC), according biological demonstrated in controlled low‐fouling protein adsorptions well accurately manipulated cell attachments.
