1-13. (canceled)
A hybrid polymer comprising monomer units of at least one monomer comprising at least one unsaturated ethylenic function, and protein units, wherein the monomer units and the protein units are partially or totally linked by at least one covalent bond, and a weight ratio between the monomer units and the protein units is between 50/1 and 1/5.
A hybrid polymer obtained by a free-radical polymerization process comprising the following successive steps:
- (A) preparing a mixture comprising at least one monomer comprising at least one unsaturated ethylenic function, and between 0.1% and 50% by weight of at least one protein, optionally at least one solvent,
- (B) initiating the polymerization in the mixture in order to obtain at least one hybrid polymer.
