Four types of phosphorylated 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA) block copolymers were synthesized by reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization and post-phosphorylation. These polymers were composed of different phosphate segments and similar PEG brushes. Polymers
