Versatile Micropatterns of N‐Heterocyclic Carbenes on Gold Surfaces: Increased Thermal and Pattern Stability with Enhanced Conductivity

Patterned monolayers of N‐heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) on gold surfaces were obtained by microcontact printing of NHC–CO₂ adducts and NHC(H)[HCO₃] salts. The NHC‐modified areas showed an increased conductivity compared to unmodified gold surface areas. Furthermore, the remaining surface areas could be modified with a second, azide‐functionalized carbene, facilitating further applications and post‐printing modifications. Thorough elucidation by a variety of analytical methods offers comprehensive evidence for the viability of the methodology reported here. The protocol enables facile access to versatile, microstructured NHC‐modified gold surfaces with highly stable patterns, enhanced conductivity, and the option for further modification.     

Stratified Polymer Brushes from Microcontact Printing of Polydopamine Initiator on Polymer Brush Surfaces

Stratified polymer brushes are fabricated using microcontact printing (μCP) of initiator integrated polydopamine (PDOPBr) on polymer brush surfaces and the following surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI‐ATRP). It is found that the surface energy, chemically active groups, and the antifouling ability of the polymer brushes affect transfer efficiency and adhesive stability of the polydopamine film. The stickiness of the PDOPBr pattern on polymer brush surfaces is stable enough to perform continuous μCP and SI‐ATRP to prepare stratified polymer brushes with a 3D topography, which have broad applications in cell and protein patterning, biosensors, and hybrid surfaces.

     

A Simple Method for Fabricating Patterned Curvilinear Microstructures in Poly(dimethylsiloxane) by Selective Wetting

The fabrication of patterned microstructures in poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) is a prerequisite for soft lithography. Herein, curvilinear surface relief microstructures in PDMS are fabricated through a simple three‐stage approach combining microcontact printing (μCP), selective surface wetting/dewetting and replica molding (REM). First, using an original PDMS stamp (first‐generation stamp) with linear relief features, a chemical pattern on gold substrate is generated by μCP using hexadecanethiol (HDT) as an ink. Then, by a dip‐coating process, an ordered polyethylene glycol (PEG) polymer‐dot array forms on the HDT‐patterned gold substrate. Finally, based on a REM process, the PEG‐dot array on gold substrate is used to fabricate a second‐generation PDMS stamp with microcavity array, and the second‐generation PDMS stamp is used to generate third‐generation PDMS stamp with microbump array. These fabricated new‐generation stamps are utilized in μCP and in micromolding in capillaries (MIMIC), allowing the generation of surface micropatterns which cannot be obtained using the original PDMS stamp. The method will be useful in producing new‐generation PDMS stamps, especially for those who want to use soft lithography in their studies but have no access to the microfabrication facilities.

Reactive μCP on ultrathin block copolymer films: Localized chemistry for micro- and nano-scale biomolecular patterning

Three different, complementary soft lithographic approaches for the fabrication of chemical patterns on ultrathin polystyrene-block-poly(tert-butyl acrylate) (PS₆₉₀-b-PtBA₁₂₁₀) films are discussed. Central to the methodology is the previously introduced reactive PS₆₉₀-b-PtBA₁₂₁₀ platform that allows one to covalently graft (bio)molecules via robust amide linkages in high densities on flat, as well as on structured, surfaces. As shown in this paper, the combination of the polymer-based platform and reactive microcontact printing (μCP) patterning approaches allows one to obtain patterns of (bio)molecules with (sub)micrometer feature sizes. The μCP approaches comprise: (A) the direct transfer of functional (bio)molecules from an oxidized elastomeric stamp to hydrolyzed and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) activated PS₆₉₀-b-PtBA₁₂₁₀; (B) the transfer of a passivating poly(ethylene glycol) layer to hydrolyzed and NHS-activated PS₆₉₀-b-PtBA₁₂₁₀ followed by wet chemical grafting of functional moieties; (C) the local hydrolysis of the PtBA skin layer with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), followed by NHS activation and wet chemical derivatization. The applicability and the versatility of the combination of the polymer thin film-based platform and soft lithographic methodologies for patterning biologically relevant molecules is demonstrated for polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers, different proteins, as well as probe DNA. The successful hybridization of target DNA and the immobilization of fibronectin in micropatterns show that ultrahigh density patterns for micro- and nano-arrays, as well as for studies of cell-surface interactions, can be conveniently fabricated based on these approaches and platforms.

A Method of Manufacturing Highly Conductive Composite Materials by Coating Surfaces of Nonconductors with Fine Particulate Conductive Substances

Summary.  A widely applicable aqueous dip-coating process termed substrate induced coagulation (SIC) suitable for coating various types of substrates (e.g. polar and unpolar polymers, inorganic glasses, metals) with fine particulate materials (e.g. carbon blacks, small particle size SiO₂ or TiO₂) has been developed. This process is based on the interaction of a conditioner (water soluble polymers or polyelectrolytes, e.g. proteins, polyvinylalcohols, polyacrylates with low charge density) which is adsorbed on the substrate with a surfactant-stabilized dispersion containing some additional electrolyte. Employing dispersions of conductive particles, the resulting coatings can be used as a conductive starting layer for electroplating. Such layers are fairly rinse-proof and may be applied in the metallization process of through holes in printed wiring boards or for the production of highly conductive composite materials from coated particles. SIC has also been used to improve the distribution of carbon in composite battery electrodes such as MnO₂/C. Received August 24, 2000. Accepted September 19, 2000

Acid/Base Properties and Adsorption of an Azo Dye on Coating Pigments

Adsorption of an anionic disazo dye, Food Black 2 on coating pigments from polar solvents was studied. Pigments (kaolin, precipitated CaCO₃, amorphous SiO₂, TiO₂, Al₂O₃, and talc) were chosen to be representative of those used in paper for ink‐jet printing. The predominating driving force for the adsorption was electrostatic interactions for all the pigments except talc, for which hydrophobic interactions were dominant. Lewis acid‐base properties of the pigments were studied by measuring adsorption of Lewis acid‐probe molecules from both polar and nonpolar media. The pigments studied were found to be amphoteric, containing both acidic and basic surface groups. However, in the presence of polar solvents, the adsorption of acid‐base probe molecules was greatly reduced, which indicates that Lewis acid‐base interactions have only a small influence on the adsorption of azo dyes from polar media such as water.     

紫外光-热双固化聚苯胺防腐涂料

以酸性磷酸酯为掺杂剂对本征态聚苯胺(EB)进行掺杂,制备了可在聚氨酯和聚氨酯丙烯酸酯中进行纳米分散的导电聚苯胺(ES),其粒径分布在80~750 nm之间可控。 在此基础上,制备了不含重金属的紫外光-热双固化聚苯胺防腐涂料。 该防腐涂料先后经过3~5 s紫外光固化和80 ℃下1~3 min的热固化,即可完成紫外光-热双固化过程。 由于ES与聚氨酯或聚氨酯丙烯酸酯之间是不相容体系,因此随着ES质量分数的增大,会导致ES的团聚,分散粒径增大。 当ES质量分数从1.0%增大到5.0%时,ES的粒径从80~119 nm增加到500~750 nm。 ES的分散粒径增大会导致防腐涂层的致密性变差,降低防腐效果。 与普通紫外光固化聚苯胺防腐涂层相比,当ES为1.0%时,紫外光-热双固化防腐涂层在质量分数为3.5%的NaCl水溶液中浸泡2160 h后,其0.1 Hz下的绝对阻抗值(|Z|_{0.1 Hz})仍高于1.0×10⁸ Ω·cm²,优于普通紫外光固化聚苯胺防腐涂层的|Z|_{0.1 Hz}(1.0×10⁷ Ω·cm²),表明紫外光-热双固化涂层的防腐效果有了显著改善。 经过500 h划叉中性盐雾试验后,普通紫外光固化防腐涂层的板面出现了锈蚀宽度小于1 mm的锈蚀,而紫外光-热双固化防腐涂层经过500 h划叉中性盐雾试验,板面没有出现生锈、起泡的现象,表明紫外光-热双固化路线对提高涂层的防腐性能具有较大的价值。

A Rapid and Efficient Way to Dynamic Creation of Cross‐Reactive Sensor Arrays Based on Ionic Liquids

Based on the simple counterion exchange of ionic liquids, a rapid, facile, and efficient strategy to create a cross‐reactive sensor array with a dynamic tunable feature was developed, and exemplified by the construction of a sensor array for the identification and classification of nitroaromatics and explosives mimics. To achieve a good sensing system with fast response, good sensitivity, and low detection limit, the synthesized ionic liquid receptors were tethered onto a silica matrix with a macro‐mesoporous hierarchical structure. Through the facile anion exchange approach, abundant ionic‐liquid‐based individual receptors with diversiform properties, such as different micro‐environments, diverse molecular interactions, and distinctive physico‐chemical properties, were easily and quickly synthesized to generate a distinct fingerprint of explosives for pattern recognition. The reversible anion exchange ability further endowed the sensor array with a dynamic tunable feature as well as good controllability and practicality for real‐world application. With the assistance of statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis (PCA) and linear discrimination analysis (LDA), an optimized‐size array with a good resolution was rationally established from a large number of IL‐based receptors. The performed experiments suggested that the ionic‐liquid‐based sensing protocol is a general and powerful strategy for creating a cross‐reactive sensor array that could find a wide range of applications for sensing various analytes or complex mixtures.
