In this investigation, block copolymers of deuterated polystyrene (dPS) and poly (2-vinylpyridine) (PVP) have been used to modify the adhesion at polystyrene/soda lime glass interfaces. The fracture energy, Gs of these interfaces was measured using an asymmetric double cantilever beam specimen. The failure mechanism was investigated using forward recoil spectrometry (FRES) and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS). The areal density, ∑ of the dPS-PVP block copolymer at the two fracture surfaces, as well as the fraction of the dPS block on the PS side of the fractured sample are measured directly by FRES. The fraction of the PVP block on the glass side of the interface can be found by quaternizing the PVP with methyl iodide and then using RBS to measure the amount of iodine on each fracture surface. Short dPS blocks (NdPS < 175) do not entangle effectively with the PS homopolymer and only very small increases in Gc can be achieved as the dPS block pulls out of the interface. If the dPS block is long (NdPS ? 175) and if ∑ is large, crazes can develop in the PS ahead of the crack. The crazed interface fails at low ∑ by breaking the block copolymer close to the styrene/vinylpyridine link. At higher ∑, if the PVP block is relatively short (NPVP = 95), the crazed interface fails by the PVP block being pulled off the glass. If both the PVP and dPS blocks are long (? 175), the Gc increases rapidly with increases in ∑, but the interface becomes so strong that the glass on the thinner side of the test specimen breaks. The dPS block and the PVP block are found on opposite sides of the fracture surface with most of the PVP on the glass and most of the dPS on the PS side of the interfaces. Finally, if the glass surface is modified by coating it with a self-assembled hydrophobic monolayer produced from chlorodimethyloctadecylsilane (CDMOS), the interface becomes very weak and fails by pull-off of the PVP from the CDMOS-coated glass. Using these results it is possible to tailor the interfacial adhesion to produce a desired Gc within a wide range of possible values. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

In this paper, the feasibility of monitoring molecular structures at a moving polymer/liquid interface by sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy has been demonstrated. N-(2-Aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (AATM, NH2(CH2)2NH(CH2)3Si(OCH3)3) has been brought into contact with a deuterated poly(methyl methacrylate) (d-PMMA) film, and the interfacial silane structure has been monitored using SFG. Upon initial contact, the SFG spectra can be detected, but as time progresses, the spectral intensity changes and finally disappears. Additional experiments indicate that these silane molecules can diffuse into the polymer film and the detected SFG signals are actually from the moving polymer/silane interface. Our results show that the molecular order of the polymer/silane interface exists during the entire diffusion process and is lost when the silane molecules traverse through the thickness of the d-PMMA film. The loss of the SFG signal is due to the formation of a new disordered substrate/silane interface, which contributes no detectable SFG signal. The kinetics of the diffusion of the silane into the polymer have been deduced from the time-dependent SFG signals detected from the AATM molecules as they diffuse through polymer films of different thickness. 相似文献

The weak interfaces between immiscible polymer pairs typically fail through chain scission. The critical facture toughness for such interfaces is closely related to the density of intermolecular entanglements at the interface. From scaling analysis, a simple correlation between facture toughness and chain entanglement was developed. It predicts well the interfacial adhesion for many immiscible polymer pairs found in the literature. For an interface with block copolymer reinforcement, its critical fracture toughness comes from both intermolecular entanglements of homopolymers and copolymer bridges. In the chain scission regime (low copolymer coverage), the block copolymer contribution is found proportional to copolymer interfacial coverage, with the coefficient being the energy to stretch and break a copolymer chain. The chain‐breaking energy for different copolymers was evaluated and compared to literature data. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 47: 2313–2319, 2009 相似文献

Moisture absorption in poly(4-tert-butoxycarbonyloxystyrene) (PBOCSt) films supported on Al(2)O(3) sputter coated silicon wafers is measured using neutron and X-ray reflectivity. Accumulation of water at the interface during moisture exposure results in an apparent film-thickness-dependent swelling for ultrathin PBOCSt films. The swelling of a film on Al(2)O(3) is less than the swelling of a film of the same thickness on SiO(x) for films thinner than 20 nm. This is due to comparatively less moisture accumulation at the Al(2)O(3)/PBOCSt interface. A simple, zero adjustable parameter model consisting of a fixed water-rich layer at the interface and bulk swelling through the remainder of the film describes the thickness-dependent swelling quantitatively. The influence of four different Al(2)O(3) surface treatments on the moisture distribution within PBOCSt films was examined: bare Al(2)O(3), tert-butylphosphonic acid, phenylphosphonic acid, and n-octyltrichlorosilane. Both the phenyl and the octyl surface treatments reduce the accumulation of water at the polymer/substrate interface. The tert-butyl treatment does not reduce the interfacial water concentration, presumably due to insufficient surface coverage. 相似文献

Deuterium labeling has been shown previously to affect thermodynamic interactions at polymer surfaces, polymer/polymer heterogeneous interfaces, and in bulk (away from a surface or interface). However, the changes in polymer-polymer interactions due to deuterium labeling have not been thoroughly investigated for highly immiscible systems. It is shown here that deuterium labeling can influence polymer-polymer interactions at heterogeneous interfaces with highly immiscible systems, namely, polystyrene/poly(2-vinylpyridine) (PS/P2VP), polystyrene/poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS/P4VP), and polystyrene/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PS/PMMA). Using secondary ion mass spectrometry, segregation of deuterium labeled polystyrene (dPS) in a dPS + unlabeled PS (dPS:hPS) blend layer was observed at the dPS:hPS/hP2VP, dPS:hPS/hP4VP, and dPS:hPS/hPMMA heterogeneous interfaces. However, a reference system involving PS on a PS brush shows no segregation of dPS to the interface. 相似文献

Stearic acid (SA) and octadecylamine (ODA) monolayers at the air/liquid interface were used as template layers to adsorb glucose oxidase (GOx) from aqueous solution. The effect of the template monolayers on the adsorption behavior of GOx was studied in terms of the variation of surface pressure, the evolution of surface morphology observed by BAM and AFM, and the conformation of adsorbed GOx. The results show that the presence of a template monolayer can enhance the adsorption rate of GOx; furthermore, ODA has a higher ability, compared to SA, to adsorb GOx, which is attributed to the electrostatic attractive interaction between ODA and GOx. For adsorption performed on a bare surface or on an SA monolayer, the surface pressure approaches an equilibrium value (ca. 8 mN/m) after 2 to 3 h of adsorption and remains nearly constant in the following adsorption process. For the adsorption on an ODA monolayer, the surface pressure will increase further 1 to 2 h after approaching the first equilibrium pressure, which is termed the second adsorption stage. The measurement of circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy indicates that the Langmuir-Blodgett films of adsorbed GOx transferred at the first equilibrium state (π = 8 mN/m) have mainly a β-sheet conformation, which is independent of the type of template monolayers. However, the ODA/GOx LB film transferred at the second adsorption stage has mainly an α-helix conformation. It is concluded that the specific interaction between ODA and GOx not only leads to a higher adsorption rate and adsorbed amount of GOx but also induces a conformation change in adsorbed GOx from β-sheet to α-helix. The present results indicate that is possible to control the conformation of adsorbed protein by selecting the appropriate template monolayer. 相似文献

Sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy has been successfully applied to study molecular structures of several poly(n-alkyl methacrylate)s (PAMAs) with different side chain lengths at the PAMA/air and PAMA/water interfaces. We have observed that the ester side chains from all PAMAs always dominate the interface, but the orientation information of the methyl end group on the side chains varies, depending on the length of the side chain. The contributions from methylene groups on the side chains have been evaluated, and the surface structures have been related to the surface tension of these polymers. Different water restructuring behaviors have been observed for different PAMAs. This phenomenon and its reversibility are strongly dependent on the glass transition temperature of each polymer, which is influenced by the side chain length. Detailed data fitting and analysis has been discussed. 相似文献

This critical review focuses on recent progress in the field of T-shaped ternary amphiphiles. These molecules can self-assemble into a series of new liquid crystalline (LC) phases with polygonal cylinder structures, new lamellar phases and LC phases combining columns and layers. These structures are analyzed on the basis of symmetry, net topology and tiling pattern (Laves and Archimedean tilings) and discussed in relation to morphologies of multiblock copolymers, self organized DNA super-lattices, metal-organic frameworks, crystal-engineering and self-assembled periodic superstructures on surfaces (210 references). 相似文献

Several recent review articles have been concerned with the topic of polymers at interfaces from the theoretical standpoint. This reflects the extensive effort made in this area over the last 10 – 15 years. However, new experimental techniques for studying polymers at interfaces have also begun to appear in recent years; so have better defined model systems. This article is therefore directed more to a survey of these experimental aspects of the subject. However, a short review of the current state of the theory is given first as background and to define concepts. In the following chapter, details of the modern experimental methods are given. The last chapter comprises an extensive comparative review of results obtained using these techniques with model systems, covering homopolymers, copolymers and polyelectrolytes. 相似文献

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) have become a standard tool for exploring surface interactions. Although well characterized, SAMs are known to undergo structural and conformational changes in the presence of solution, yet the ability to quantify these changes remains an obstacle due to limited analytical techniques. In this study, we determine changes in structure and conformation of CH3, OH, and COOH terminated hexadecanethiols on gold in water by means of a new technique known as evanescence reflection spectroscopy. This FTIR application, in conjunction with a semiempirical formalism, is capable of providing both qualitative and quantitative understanding of the molecular structure and orientation at the solid/liquid interface. 相似文献

Polyimides are widely used as chip passivation layers and organic substrates in microelectronic packaging. Plasma treatment has been used to enhance the interfacial properties of polyimides, but its molecularmechanism is not clear. In this research, the effects of polyimide surface plasma treatment on the molecular structures at corresponding polyimide/air and buried polyimide/epoxy interfaces were investigated in situ using sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy. SFG results show that the polyimide backbone molecular structure was different at polyimide/air and polyimide/epoxy interfaces before and after plasma treatment. The different molecular structures at each interface indicate that structural reordering of the polyimide backbone occurred as a result of plasma treatment and contact with the epoxy adhesive. Furthermore, quantitative orientation analysis indicated that plasma treatment of polyimide surfaces altered the twist angle of the polyimide backbone at corresponding buried polyimide/epoxy interfaces. These SFG results indicate that plasma treatment of polymer surfaces can alter the molecular structure at corresponding polymer/air and buried polymer interfaces. 相似文献

A new model has been developed to calculate the areal chain density of entanglements (Σeff) at partially miscible polymer–polymer interfaces. The model for Σeff is based on a stochastic approach that considers the miscibility of the system. The values agree between Σeff calculated from the model and literature values for the reinforced interfaces. Using Σeff calculated from the model, the interfacial width, and the average distance between entanglements, an equation for the fracture energy of nonreinforced polymer interfaces is proposed. This equation is used to model the transition from chain pullout to crazing. As a function of system miscibility, the model for Σeff also accurately predicts a maximum in mode I fracture energy (Gc) as a result of the transition from gradient‐driven to miscibility‐limited interdiffusion, which is observed experimentally. As Σeff increases, the fracture energy increases accordingly. Compared with a recent model developed by Brown, the new model correctly predicts a reduced Gc (attributed to chain pullout) when the interfacial width is less than the average distance between entanglements. Theoretical predictions of the change in fracture energy with respect to interfacial width agree with the experimental measurements. Finally, it is postulated that the use of a miscibility criterion for Gc may reveal the universal nature of the pullout to crazing transition. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

By considering bacteria as living colloidal particles it is possible to define, at least in part, the physicochemical and biological factors involved in the adhesion of bacteria to apparently inert surfaces. Adhesion is considered in terms of the attraction and repulsion forces operative as the organism approaches a substratum surface, as well as in terms of the surface free energies of the bacterium, the substratum and the liquid phase. Bacterial adhesion at a surface is preceded by molecular adsorption, a process that may alter the substratum surface properties and may provide a concentrated source of nutrients allowing limited growth of the bacteria at the surface. 相似文献

Adsorption of surfactants and polymers at solid-liquid interfaces is used widely to modify interfacial properties in a variety of industrial processes such as flotation, ceramic processing, flocculation/dispersion, personal care product formulation and enhanced oil recovery. The behavior of surfactants and polymers at interfaces is determined by a number of forces, including electrostatic attraction, covalent bonding, hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic bonding, and solvation and desolvation of various species. The extent and type of the forces involved varies depending on the adsorbate and the adsorbent, and also the composition and other characteristics of the solvent and dissolved components in it. The influence of such forces on the adsorption behavior is reviewed here from a thermodynamics point of view. The experimental results from microcalorimetric and spectroscopic studies of adsorbed layers of different surfactant and polymer systems at solid-liquid interfaces are also presented. Calorimetric data from the adsorption of an anionic surfactant, sodium octylbenzenesulfonate, and a non-ionic surfactant, dodecyloxyheptaethoxyethylalcohol, and their mixtures on alumina, yielded important thermodynamic information. It was found that the adsorption of anionic surfactants alone on alumina was initially highly exothermic due to the electrostatic interaction with the substrate. Further adsorption leading to a solloid (hemimicelle) formation is proposed to be mainly an entropy-driven process. The entropy effect was found to be more pronounced for the adsorption of anionic-non-ionic surfactant mixtures than for the anionic surfactant alone. Fluorescence studies using a pyrene probe on an adsorbed surfactant and polymer layers, along with electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy, reveal the role of surface aggregation and the conformation of the adsorbed molecules in controlling the dispersion and wettability of the system. 相似文献

A goal across multiple scientific fields (e.g. separations, polymer processing, and biomaterials) is to understand polymer dynamics at solid/liquid interfaces. In the last two decades, rapid developments in single-molecule techniques have revolutionized our ability to directly observe molecular behaviors with ultra-high spatial/temporal resolution and to decouple the elementary processes that were often veiled in ensemble experiments. This review provided an overview of principle and realization of two single-molecule fluorescence techniques that were often used to study the interfacial dynamics. In addition, this review updated recent progress in the discovery and understanding of dynamical anomalies of polymers at solid/liquid interfaces using these single-molecule techniques, emphasizing important elementary processes of diffusion, adsorption, and desorption. 相似文献

Here, we report on the first electrochemical study that reveals the kinetics and molecular level mechanism of heterogeneous ion-ionophore recognition at plasticized polymer membrane/water interfaces. The new kinetic data provide greater understanding of this important ion-transfer (IT) process, which determines various dynamic characteristics of the current technologies that enable highly selective ion sensing and separation. The theoretical assessment of the reliable voltammetric data confirms that the dynamics of the ionophore-facilitated IT follows the one-step electrochemical (E) mechanism controlled by ion-ionophore complexation at the very interface in contrast to the thermodynamically equivalent two-step electrochemical-chemical (EC) mechanism based on the simple transfer of an aqueous ion followed by its complexation in the bulk membrane. Specifically, cyclic voltammograms of Ag(+), K(+), Ca(2+), Ba(2+), and Pb(2+) transfers facilitated by highly selective ionophores are measured and analyzed numerically using the E mechanism to obtain standard IT rate constants in the range of 10(-2) to 10(-3) cm/s at both plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) membrane/water and 1,2-dichloroethane/water interfaces. We demonstrate that these strongly facilitated IT processes are too fast to be ascribed to the EC mechanism. Moreover, the little effect of the viscosity of nonaqueous media on the IT kinetics excludes the EC mechanism, where the kinetics of simple IT is viscosity-dependent. Finally, we employ molecular level models for the E mechanism to propose three-dimensional ion-ionophore complexation at the two-dimensional interface as the unique kinetic requirement for the thermodynamically facilitated IT. 相似文献

A molecular model is proposed which predicts wall slip by disentanglement of polymer chains adsorbed on a wall from those in the polymer bulk. The dynamics of the near-wall boundary layer is found to be governed by a nonlinear equation of motion, which accounts for such mechanisms on surface chains as convection, retraction, constraint release, and thermal fluctuations. This equation is valid over a wide range of grafting regimes, including those in which interactions between neighboring adsorbed molecules become essential. It is not closed since the dynamics of adsorbed chains is shown to be coupled to that of polymer chains in the bulk via constraint release. The constitutive equations for the layer and bulk, together with continuity of stress and velocity, are found to form a closed system of equations which governs the dynamics of the whole "bulk+boundary layer" ensemble. Its solution provides a stick-slip law in terms of the molecular parameters and extruder geometry. The model is quantitative and contains only those parameters that can be measured directly, or extracted from independent rheological measurements. The model predictions show a good agreement with available experimental data. 相似文献

The interdiffusion of polymer chains across a polymer–polymer interface, and subsequent fracture to re-create the interface is reviewed. In particular, films formed via latex coalescence provide a very large surface area. Of course, latex film formation is a very important practical problem. Healing of the interface by interdiffusion is treated using the de Gennes reptation theory and the Wool minor chain reptation model. The self-diffusion coefficients of polystyrene and the polymethacrylates obtained by small-angle neutron scattering, SANS, direct non-radiative energy transfer, DET, and other techniques are compared. Reduced to 150,000 g/mol and 135°C, both polystyrene and poly(methyl methacrylate) have diffusion coefficients of the order of 10?16?10?17 cm2/sec. Variations in the diffusion coefficient values are attributed to the experimental approaches, theoretical treatments and molecular weight distribution differences. An activation energy of 55 kcal/mol was calculated from an Arrhenius plot of all polystyrene data reduced to a number-average molecular weight of 150,000 g/mol, using an inverse square molecular weight conversion method. Interestingly, this is in between the activation energies for the α and β relaxation processes in polystyrene, 84 and 35 kcal/mol, respectively. Fracture of polystyrene was considered in terms of chain scission and chain pull-out. A dental burr apparatus was used to fracture the films. For low molecular weights, chain pull-out dominates, but for high molecular weights, chain scission dominates. At 150,000 g/mol, the energy to fracture is divided approximately equally between the two mechanisms. Above a certain number average molecular weight (about 400,000 g/mol), the number of chain scissions remains constant at about 1024 scissions/m3. Energy balance calculations for film formation and film fracture processes indicate that the two processes are partly reversible, but have important components of irreversibility. From the interdiffusion SANS data, the diffusion rate is calculated to be about 1 Å/min, which is nine orders of magnitude slower than the dental burr pull-out velocity of about 0.8 cm/sec. 相似文献

The adsorption of mixtures of aqueous solutions of cationic hydroxyethylcellulose polymer JR400 and anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate, using atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been studied. Samples with various compositions from different regions of the ternary phase diagram presented in our previous work were imaged by atomic force microscopy on freshly cleaved mica, and hydrophobically modified mica and silica in soft-contact mode. A series of "washing" (subsequent injection of compositions with gradually decreasing polymer/surfactant ratio) and "scratching" (mechanical agitation of the surface material with an AFM tip) experiments were performed. It was revealed that the morphology of the adsorbed layer altered in a manner following the changes in morphology in the bulk solution. These changes were evidenced in cluster formation in the layer. The results suggest that the influence of the surface was limited to the formation of the adsorbed layer where the local concentrations of polymer and surfactant were higher than those in the bulk. All further modifications were driven by changes in the mixture composition in bulk. Force measurements upon retraction reveal the formation of network structures within the surface aggregates that will greatly slow structural reequilibration. 相似文献
