Abstract

Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) polymerization is a prevalent technique for fabricating conformal, defect-free, and systematically adjustable organic thin films. CVD is particularly beneficial for barrier coatings due to its ability to eliminate solvent-related environmental, health, and safety risk factors and provide a wide spectrum of post-polymerization modification strategies. This review discusses poly-p-xylylene and its functional derivatives. CVD polymerization of [2.2]paracyclophane precursors has undergone a recent renaissance due to advancements in chemical and morphological surface manipulation. This review summarizes emerging trends based on the following outline:

Table of content:

1 Introduction

2 CVD Polymerization as a Sustainable Coating Technology

4 Poly-p-xylylene Coatings: Background of Polymerization Process and Functionalized Films

5 Main Applications of Poly-p-xylylenes

6 Area-Selective CVD Polymerization

7 Fabrication and Applications of Topological Structures

8 Conclusions and Outlook

Key words
