溶胀后的弹性印章进行毛细微模塑

Micromolding in capillaries of a micro-square array was carried out for polystyrene solution in acetone by means of swollen polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomeric stamp. The resulting micro-cubic poles were isolated and separable when the added amount of the polystyrene solution was small. Some special distorting micro-patterns in the micro-square array were observed because of shrinkage resulting from the varying evaporation rate of solvent at different places.     

Simple fabrication of a smart microarray of polystyrene microbeads for immunoassay

We describe a simple method to fabricate an array of polystyrene microbeads (PS μbeads) conjugated with an elastin-like polypeptide (ELP) on a glass surface using a removable polymer template (RPT). A thin layer of adhesive was spun-cast on glass and cured by UV radiation. Micropatterns of an RPT were then transferred onto the surface by microcontact printing. The adhesion of PS μbeads on the surface depended on the adhesion performance of the adhesive layer, which could be adjusted by irradiation time. An array of PS μbeads conjugated with ELP was used for a smart immunoassay of prostate-specific antigen (PSA), a cancer marker. By controlling the phase transition of ELP molecules, PSA molecules were selectively adhered or released from the bead surface. The selective and reversible binding of PSA molecules on the bead surface was characterized with fluorescence microscopy.     

A novel synthesis of polymer brush on multiwall carbon nanotubes bearing terminal monomeric unit

A novel approach to fabricate polymer brushes on the surface of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is proposed. Carboxyl groups on the surface of chemically oxidized CNTs were reacted with hexamethylene diisocyanate, followed by a reaction with methacrylamide to give terminal vinyl groups‐functionalized CNTs, so called “CNT‐mer.” The synthetic procedure was investigated step‐by‐step and the synthesized CNT‐mer was used to grow polystyrene (PS) from CNTs by a simple in situ polymerization in the presence of a thermal initiator. By employing ¹H NMR, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and light scattering, the experimental results were verified. Using this approach, 45% PS with respect to CNTs are grafted on the surface of CNTs with about 4.0 nm thickness. This novel technique would provide a facile route to prepare tailor‐made polymer brushes on the surface of CNTs. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 44:6394–6401, 2006

Microcapillary electrophoresis chips utilizing controllable micro-lens structures and buried optical fibers for on-line optical detection

In this study, a new design of a controllable micro-lens structure capable of the enhancement of LIF detection system has been demonstrated, which can be further integrated with buried optical fibers on a micro-CE chip for sample separation and detection. Two pneumatic side-chambers were placed between a micro-CE channel and an optical fiber channel. The intervals between the side-chamber and the microchannel were used to form two surfaces of the controllable micro-lens structure. Deformations of the two surfaces can be generated after pressurized index-matching fluid was injected into the pneumatic side-chambers. The side-chambers can be deflected as a double convex lens to focus both the excitation light source and the fluorescent emission signal. The profile and the focal length of the micro-lens structure can be actively adjusted by applying different liquid pressures so that biosamples with a low concentration can be detected. Using low-cost polymeric materials such as polydimethylsiloxane, rapid and reliable fabrication techniques involving standard lithography and replication process was employed for the formation of the proposed chip device. Experimental results revealed the controllable micro-lens structure can be successfully deformed as a convex lens to focus the laser light source and the collected fluorescence signal can be enhanced accordingly. The power amplitude of excitation laser light can be enhanced by 5.4-fold. FITC dye and DNA markers were then utilized for micro-CE testing. The results indicated that the signal amplitude could be enhanced 2.5-fold when compared to the case without the activation of the micro-lens. According to the experimental results, the developed device has a great potential to be integrated with other microfluidic devices for further biomedical applications.     

Polymeric surfactants in latex technology: polystyrene–poly(ethylene oxide) block copolymers as stabilizers in emulsion polymerization

Polystyrene–poly(ethylene oxide) PS–PEO di- and triblock copolymers have been used as stabilizers in the emulsion polymerization of styrene and styrene–butylacrylate for the preparation of “hairy latexes”. The polymerization kinetics and the efficiency of these polymeric surfactants were correlated with the molecular characteristics of the block copolymer. It was shown that the efficiency decreased with increasing molecular weight and PS content of the block copolymer. The PEO frige, with a thickness of 4–25 nm, on the latex particle surface could be characterized and it was shown by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) that water is strucured in that PEO layer. Film formation with “hairy latexes” was also examined both by DSC and thermomechanical analysis. The properties and application possibilities, such as in controlled latex flocculation, have been reviewed.     

Rapid prototyping for injection moulded integrated microfluidic devices and diffractive element arrays

This paper describes two fabrication procedures that makes it possible to design, fabricate and injection mold a microfluidic system with an on board coupling element or an optical array platform in less than four hours. Epoxy masters for the array and a single diffractive element were produced using conventional soft lithography techniques and a commercially available UV curable epoxy. The fabrication of the master for the integrated microfluidic device utilized the surface chemistry of polyester and its interaction with the anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), to selectively inhibit the adhesion between the epoxy and the polyester film during the curing reaction. The transfer of a microfluidic design and the required coupling element (632 nm holographic grating) along the base of the channel was completed in a single step. The turnaround time from design to injection molded device whether a microchannel or array was 3.5 h.     

A facile strategy for controlling the self-assembly of nanocomposite particles based on colloidal steric stabilization theory

A heterocoagulation strategy based on colloidal steric stabilization theory has been developed, through which polystyrene (PS) and silica (SiO(2)) particles without any surface modification or functionalization self-assembled rapidly via solution to afford nanocomposite particles with raspberry-like morphology. The formation mechanism is fully studied on the basis of a thermodynamic analysis. The soluble stabilizer and the solvent quality are the main determining factors, which have a significant influence on this self-assembly process and the silica coverage of resultant composites. The relative size of PS to SiO(2) candidates also has the effect of control on the extent of self-assembly. Furthermore, this strategy can be applied to fabricate a broad range of composite materials, including PS/TiO(2), PS/AgI, as well as PS/PS composites.
