Atmospheric plasma treatment of pre‐electrospinning polymer solution: A feasible method to improve electrospinnability

The electrospinnability of polyethylene oxide (PEO) was manipulated by atmospheric plasma treatment of pre‐electrospinning solutions. Conductivity, viscosity, and surface tension of PEO solutions increased after plasma treatment, and the plasma effect remained longer when the solution concentrate increased. Both untreated and treated solutions were then electrospun, and the morphology of the resultant nanofibers was observed by SEM. Atmospheric plasma treatment improved the electrospinnability of PEO solutions and led to less beads and finer diameter distribution in the resultant nanofibers. Additionally, plasma treatment of the pre‐electrospinning solutions affected the crystal structure of resultant nanofibers. These results suggest that atmospheric plasma treatment is a feasible approach to improve the electrospinnability of polymer solutions and can used to control the structure of electrospun nanofibers. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Structure and rheology of hyperbranched and dendritic polymers. II. Effects of blending acetylated and hydroxy‐terminated poly(propyleneimine) dendrimers with aqueous poly(ethylene oxide) solutions

The effect of adding acetylated poly(propyleneimine) dendrimers to the structure and rheology of aqueous solutions of high molecular weight poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) was investigated by rheology and small‐angle neutron scattering in a temperature range of 10–40 °C. In the semidilute regime, the steady shear rheology of PEO solutions was unmodified by the addition of dendrimers at a comparable weight concentration. At the highest concentrations studied, the addition of acetylated dendrimers suppressed the onset of a low‐frequency elastic modulus at the lowest temperature investigated. For comparison, the addition of PEO of a comparable molecular weight at the same weight fraction resulted in a milder suppression but, unlike the dendrimers, greatly increased the solution viscosity. The addition of acetylated dendrimers to a semidilute PEO solution at 10 °C substantially reduced the solution turbidity. These effects on the rheology and optical properties were confirmed by small‐angle neutron scattering measurements of the molecular structure of the mixture. Additional SANS measurements in the dilute regime (0.1 wt % PEO) showed quantitatively that the dendrimers decorated the PEO chains in a necklace structure, such as that observed previously for micelles. The results suggested a mechanism of rheology modification whereby the dendrimers disrupted the association network structure in the PEO solution at lower temperatures by preferentially associating with the PEO chains in solution. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Effects of poly(ethylene oxide) and pH on the electrospinning of whey protein isolate

Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) is known for facilitating the electrospinning of biopolymer solutions, which are otherwise not electrospinnable. The objective of this study was to improve the understanding of the positive effects of PEO on the electrospinning of whey protein isolate (WPI) solutions under different pH conditions. Alterations in protein secondary structure and polymer solution properties (viscosity, conductivity, and dynamic surface tension), as induced by pH changes, significantly affected the electrospinning behavior of WPI/PEO (10% w/w: 0.4% w/w PEO) solutions. Acidic solutions resulted in smooth fibers (707 ± 105 nm) while neutral solutions produced spheres (2.0 ± 1.0 μm) linked with ultrafine fibers (138 ± 32 nm). In comparison, alkaline solutions produced fibers (191 ± 36 nm) that were embedded with spindle‐like beads (1.0 ± 0.5 μm). ¹³C NMR and FTIR spectroscopies showed that the increase in random coil and α‐helix secondary structures in WPI were the main contributors to the formation of bead‐less electrospun fibers. The electrospinning‐enabling properties of PEO on aqueous WPI solutions were attributed to physical chain entanglement between the two polymers, rather than specific polymer–polymer interactions. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Controlled preparation of nanometer‐sized supramolecular cylinders of poly(ethylene oxide) embedded in methacrylate matrices

Semi‐interpenetrating networks of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and highly crosslinked poly(methacrylate)s were generated from solutions of PEO in mixtures of methacrylate monomers and dimethacrylate crosslinkers. The deep quenching of the solutions into the unstable region resulted in microphase separation via a spinodal decomposition mechanism. Through the crystallization of the PEO inside the polymer‐rich phase, the domain size was reduced below the Cahn–Hilliard limit. The microstructure was permanently preserved by subsequent UV‐initiated polymerization of the monomers well below the PEO melting temperature. The semi‐interpenetrating networks were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry, small‐angle X‐ray scattering, NMR spin‐diffusion measurements, and electron microscopy. Morphologies based on networks of cylindrical PEO aggregates with diameters of 10 ± 2 nm were observed, nearly independent of the molecular weight of the used PEO. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Unusual phase behavior in mixtures of poly(ethylene oxide) and ethyl alcohol

Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), soluble in both aqueous and organic solvents, is one of the most intriguing polymers. PEO solution properties have been extensively studied for decades; however, many of the studies have focused on specific properties, such as clustering, of PEO in aqueous solutions, and the behavior of PEO in organic solvents has not been adequately explored. The results presented here demonstrate that PEO crystallizes into a lamellar structure in ethyl alcohol after the mixture is quenched to room temperature from a temperature above the crystal melting point. Above the melting temperature, PEO completely dissolves in ethyl alcohol, and the mixture exhibits regular polymer solution thermodynamic behavior with an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) phase diagram. Remarkably, the UCST phase boundary is significantly below the melting temperature, and this indicates that the system undergoes a crystallization process before the phase separation can occur upon cooling and, therefore, possesses an unusual phase transition. The phase transition from the crystalline state to the miscible solution state is reversible upon heating or cooling and can be induced by the addition of a small amount of water. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Poly(ethylene imine)‐graft‐poly(ethylene oxide) brush‐like copolymers: Preparation,thermal properties,and selective supramolecular inclusion complexation with α‐cyclodextrin

Poly(ethylene imine)‐graft‐poly(ethylene oxide) (PEI‐g‐PEO) copolymers were synthesized via Michael addition reaction between acryl‐terminated poly(ethylene oxide) methyl ether (PEO) and poly(ethylene imine) (PEI). The brush‐like copolymers were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. It is found that the crystallinity of the PEO side chains in the copolymers remained unaffected by the PEI backbone whereas the crystal structure of PEO side chains was altered to some extent by the PEI backbone. The crystallization behavior of PEO blocks in the copolymers suggests that the bush‐shaped copolymers are microphase‐separated in the molten state. The PEO side chains of the copolymers were selectively complexed with α‐cyclodextrin (α‐CD) to afford hydrophobic side chains (i.e., PEO/α‐CD inclusion complexes). The X‐ray diffraction (XRD) shows that the inclusion complexes (ICs) of the PEO side chains displayed a channel‐type crystalline structure. It is identified that the stoichiometry of the inclusion complexation of the PEI‐g‐PEO with α‐CD is close to that of the control PEO with α‐CD. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Reciprocated suppression of polymer crystallization toward improved solid polymer electrolytes: Higher ion conductivity and tunable mechanical properties

Solid polymer electrolytes based on lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide and polymer matrix were extensively studied in the past due to their excellent potential in a broad range of energy related applications. Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and polyethylene oxide (PEO) are among the most examined polymer candidates as solid polymer electrolyte matrix. In this work, we study the effect of reciprocated suppression of polymer crystallization in PVDF/PEO binary matrix on ion transport and mechanical properties of the resultant solid polymer electrolytes. With electron and X‐ray diffractions as well as energy filtered transmission electron microscopy, we identify and examine the appropriate blending composition that is responsible for the diminishment of both PVDF and PEO crystallites. A three‐fold conductivity enhancement is achieved along with a highly tunable elastic modulus ranging from 20 to 200 MPa, which is expected to contribute toward future designs of solid polymer electrolytes with high room‐temperature ion conductivities and mechanical flexibility. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis and characterization of thermoresponsive amphiphilic block copolymers incorporating a poly(ethylene oxide‐stat‐propylene oxide) block

Amphiphilic BuO‐(PEO‐stat‐PPO)‐block‐PLA‐OH diblock and MeO‐PEO‐block‐(PEO‐stat‐PPO)‐block‐PLA‐OH triblock copolymers incorporating thermoresponsive poly(ethylene oxide‐stat‐propylene oxide) (PEO‐stat‐PPO) blocks were prepared by ring‐opening polymerization of lactide (LA) initiated by macroinitiators formed from treating BuO‐(PEO‐stat‐PPO)‐OH and MeO‐PEO‐block‐(PEO‐stat‐PPO)‐OH with AlEt₃. MeO‐PEO‐block‐(PEO‐stat‐PPO)‐OH was prepared by coupling MeO‐PEO‐OH and HO‐(PEO‐stat‐PPO)‐OH, followed by chromatographic purification. The cloud points of 0.2% aqueous solutions are between 36 and 46 °C for the diblock copolymers that contain a 50 wt % EO thermoresponsive block and 78 °C for the triblock copolymer that contains a 75 wt % EO thermoresponsive block. Variable temperature ¹H NMR spectra recorded on D₂O solutions of the diblock copolymers display no PLA resonances below the cloud point and fairly sharp PLA resonances above the cloud point, suggesting that desolvation of the thermoresponsive block increases the miscibility of the two blocks. Preliminary characterization of the micelles formed in aqueous solutions of BuO‐(PEO‐stat‐PPO)‐block‐PLA‐OH conducted using laser scanning confocal microscopy and pulsed gradient spin echo NMR point to significant changes in the size of the micellar aggregates as a function of temperature. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Degradable poly(ethylene oxide) hydrogels formed by crosslinking with tert‐butylperoxybenzoate

Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO, number‐average molecular weight: 2,000,000) was crosslinked by reaction with t‐butylperoxybenzoate in the melt. Upon swelling in water, the resulting hydrogels were acidic and suggested clear evidence of spontaneous hydrolysis that continued over periods of several weeks to give clear and low‐viscosity aqueous solutions of PEO oligomers. In contrast, in neutral media the gels did not show any signs of hydrolysis. As shown by UV, IR, and size exclusion chromatographic analysis, the PEO hydrolysis products consist of benzoic acid and hydroxyl‐ and carboxyl end‐functionalized low‐molecular‐weight PEOs. This is consistent with the acid‐catalyzed hydrolysis of acetal‐, orthoester‐, and similar end‐functionalized PEOs formed by radical coupling of various PEO radicals with benzoate, alkoxy, and other radicals. Titration of the hydrolysis mixtures indicated that the total molar amount of acid exceeds that of the maximum amount of benzoic acid produced during gel formation. However, the amount of benzoic acid equaled this maximum amount. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 41: 520–527, 2003     

Nickel dithiolene complexes encapsulated in biocompatible amphiphilic diblock copolymer nanoparticles

The goal of this study is to prepare novel hybrid nanoparticles, in the form of micellar nanoparticles in aqueous media, which will combine the properties of the amphiphilic diblock copolymers (such as PEO‐b‐PPhOx and PI‐b‐PEO) with the ones of the nickel 1,2‐dithiolene (1,2‐Ni DT) complexes. The structural and morphological analysis of these nanoparticles have revealed that they can be promising for photodynamic therapy and near‐infrared (NIR) optical imaging due to their size and absorption in NIR. The micellar nanoparticles have been studied not only in aqueous solutions but also under other physiological conditions, that is, PBS and PBS‐FBS buffer solutions. Their solutions are characterized by several methods, including UV–vis spectroscopy, light scattering, and FTIR. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part B: Polym.

Studies on surface structures of poly(ethylene oxide)‐segmented nylon films

The surface structures of three kinds of poly(ethylene oxide)‐segmented nylon (PEO‐Ny) molten films were investigated using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM), an electron spectroscopy for a chemical analysis (ESCA), and a static secondary ion mass spectrometry (SSIMS). The PEO‐Ny's used were high semicrystalline PEO‐segmented poly(iminosebacoyliminohexamethylene) (PEO‐Ny610), low semicrystalline PEO‐segmented poly(iminosebacoylimino‐m‐xylene) (PEO‐NyM10), and amorphous PEO‐segmented poly(iminoisophthaloyliminomethylene‐1,3‐cyclohexylenemethylene) (PEO‐NyBI). SEM observations show that the surfaces of the PEO‐Ny610 and PEO‐NyM10 films are composed of spherulite, and that PEO‐NyBI film has a smooth surface. The results of ESCA and SSIMS exhibit the significant enrichments of PEO segment at the surfaces of all the films regardless of the crystallinity. The reason for the enrichment of PEO segment was discussed in terms of the surface tension of the corresponding homopolymers in the melting state. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Characterization of the stable and metastable poly(ethylene oxide)–urea complexes in electrospun fibers

Solution electrospinning was used for the first time to prepare nanofibers of the stable (α) and metastable (β) complexes between poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and urea. Both types of fibers were highly crystalline and presented a large level of molecular orientation. Detailed characterization of the ill‐studied β complex was performed using wide angle X‐ray diffraction (WAXD), infrared spectroscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Results reveal that it possesses a 3:2 PEO:urea stoichiometry and suggest that it belongs to the orthorhombic system with a = 1.907 nm, b = 0.862 nm, and c = 0.773 nm. The PEO chains are oriented along the fiber axis and present a conformation significantly affected by strong hydrogen bonding with urea when compared with the pure polymer and the stable complex. A layered structure model is suggested for the metastable complex, in which the urea molecules would be arranged into a ribbon‐like structure intercalated between two PEO layers. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Viscosity enhancement of complexed solutions formed through the complexation of nonionic water‐soluble polymers with chemically complementary structures in aqueous media

The intermacromolecular complexation of polymers with chemically complementary structures in aqueous media is a new approach to modifying polymer solutions, especially to enhance solution viscosity. In this study, complexed solutions formed through the hydrogen‐bonding complexation of several nonionic water‐soluble polymer pairs—poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) with polyacrylamide (PAM), PAM with poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), PAA with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), and PEO with PVA—were prepared, and the viscosity enhancement of the complexed solutions were studied with vision spectrophotometry and viscometry. The effects of the polymer concentration, polymer molecular weight, and pH value of the polymer solution on the intermacromolecular interactions were investigated through a comparison of the viscosity enhancement factor R of different complexed solutions. The results show that the viscosity of the PAA/PAM complexed solution is much higher than that of its constituents, whereas that of the PAM/PEO and the PAA/PVA complexed solutions are between the viscosities of their constituents but are higher than the theory values calculated from the blending rule of two polymer solutions. These results indicate that in the complexed solutions there exist interactions between the macromolecules with chemically complementary structures, although the interactions are quite different for the different complexed systems. It is the interactions that lead to an association of the polymers and, hence, an obvious enhancement in the solution viscosity and the resistance of the polymer solutions to shearing. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Self‐assembly of amphiphilic ABA random triblock copolymers in water

Self‐assembly of amphiphilic ABA random triblock copolymers in water serves as a novel approach to create unique structure micelles connected with flexible linkages. The ABA triblock copolymers consist of amphiphilic random copolymers bearing hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) and hydrophobic dodecyl pendants as the A segments and a hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) as the middle B segment. The A block is varied in dodecyl methacrylate content of 20%–50% and degree of polymerization (DP) of 100‐200. By controlling the composition and DP of the A block, various architectures can be tailor‐made as micelles in water: PEO‐linked double core unimer micelles, PEO‐looped unimer or dimer micelles, and multichain micelles. Those PEO‐linked or looped micelles further exhibit thermoresponsive solubility in water. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym. Chem. 2019 , 57, 313–321     

Surface immobilization of poly(ethylene oxide): Structure and properties

We covalently immobilized poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) chains onto a fluorinated ethylene propylene copolymer (FEP) surface. On the FEP surface, aldehyde groups were first deposited by plasma polymerization of acetaldehyde or acrolein. Then, amino‐PEO chains were immobilized through Schiff base formation, which was followed by reduction stabilization with sodium cyanoborohydride. The PEO‐grafted polymer surfaces thus prepared were characterized by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy, contact‐angle measurements, and protein adsorption. The dramatic increase in the C O intensity of the high‐resolution XPS C 1s spectrum, together with an overall increase in oxygen content, indicated the successful attachment of PEO chains onto the acetaldehyde plasma surfaces. The amount of grafted PEO chains depended on the superfacial density of the plasma‐generated aldehyde groups. The grafted monoamino‐PEO chains formed a brushlike structure on the polymer surface, whereas the bisamino‐PEO chains predominately adopted a looplike conformation. The PEO surface had a regular morphology with greater roughness than the aldehyde surface underneath. Surface hydrophilicity increased with the grafting of PEO. Also, the bisamino‐PEO‐grafted surface had slightly higher surface hydrophilicity than its monoamino‐PEO counterpart. These PEO coatings reduced fibrinogen adsorption by 43% compared with the substrate FEP surface. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci B: Polym Phys 38: 2323–2332, 2000     

Mixed solvent effect on lithium-coordination to poly(ethylene oxide)

This article presents a comparative study of the structure formation of poly (ethylene oxide) PEO/Li complexes in aqueous and acetonitrile solutions using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). We demonstrate that in acetonitrile solutions, Li-cations coordinate to the ether–oxygen of the monomeric unit, and this results in charging and stretching of the polymer chains. This is found to be in contrast to aqueous solutions, where the ions remain free in solution. In particular, we demonstrate that the “binding” and “screening” regimes that were observed in case of PEO/K⁺ solutions in acetonitrile are also found in the respective PEO/Li⁺ solutions. The addition of water to solutions in acetonitrile increasingly diminishes the ion-coordination to the polymer, eventually resulting in neutral polymer chains at water contents above ϕ*_water = 30% (w/v). The preferential adsorption of water on PEO in mixtures of acetonitrile and water is evidenced by the pronounced stretching of polymer chains, in particular, at a water content of ϕ_water = 25% and 33.33% (w/v) where complete stretching of the chains is observed. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Synthesis,characterization, and properties of amphiphilic chitosan copolymers with mixed side chains by click chemistry

Novel amphiphilic chitosan copolymers with mixed side chains of poly(ε‐caprolactone) and poly(ethylene oxide) (CS‐g‐PCL/PEO) were successfully synthesized by “graft to” approach via click chemistry. The melting and crystallization behaviors and crystalline morphology of CS‐g‐PCL/PEO copolymers can be adjusted by the alteration of the feed ratio of PCL and PEO segments. CS‐g‐PCL/PEO copolymers revealed crystalline morphology different from that of linear alkynyl PCL and alkynyl PEO due to the influence of brush structure of copolymers and the mutual influence of PCL and PEO segments. The hydrophilicity of the CS copolymers can be improved and adjusted by the alteration of the composition of PCL and PEO segments. Moreover, the CS copolymers can self‐assemble into spherical micelles in aqueous solution. Investigation shows that the size of the CS copolymer micelles increased with the increase of the content of hydrophobic PCL segments in copolymers, which indicated that the micellar behavior of the copolymers can be controlled by the adjustment of the ratio of PCL and PEO segments in copolymer. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Clicked (AB)2C‐type miktoarm terpolymers: Synthesis,thermal and self‐assembly properties,and preparation of nanoporous materials

A well‐defined (PEO‐PS)₂‐PLA miktoarm terpolymer ( 1 ) was synthesized by stepwise click reactions of individually prepared poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), polystyrene (PS, polymerized by atom transfer radical polymerization), and polylactide (PLA, polymerized by ring‐opening polymerization) blocks. As characterized by differential scanning calorimetry and small‐angle X‐ray scattering techniques, the terpolymer self‐assembled into a hexagonal columnar structure consisting of PLA/PEO cylindrical cores surrounded by PS chains. In contrast, the ion‐doped sample ( 1‐Li⁺ ) with lithium concentration per ethylene oxide = 0.2 exhibited a three‐phase lamellar structure, which was attributed to the microphase separation between PEO and PLA blocks and to the conformational stabilization of the longest PLA chain. The two‐phase columnar morphology before the ion doping was used to prepare a nanoporous material. PLA chains in the cylindrical core region were hydrolyzed by sodium hydroxide, producing nanopores with a pore diameter of about 14 nm. The resulted nanoporous material sank to the bottom in water, because of water‐compatible PEO chains on the walls. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2013     

Highly ordered nanoporous thin films by blending of PSt‐b‐PMMA block copolymers and PEO additives as structure directing agents

Herein, we present a simple method for producing nanoporous templates with a high degree of lateral ordering by self‐assembly of block copolymers. A key feature of this approach is control of the orientation of polymeric microdomains through the use of hydrophilic additives as structure directing agents. Incorporation of hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) moieties into poly(styrene‐b‐methyl methacrylate) (PSt‐b‐PMMA) diblock copolymers gives vertical alignment of PMMA cylinders on the substrate after solvent annealing. Because of the miscibility between PEO and PMMA, PEO additives were selectively positioned within PMMA microdomains and by controlling the processing conditions, it was found that ordering of PSt‐b‐PMMA diblock copolymers could be achieved. The perpendicular orientation of PMMA cylinders was achieved by increasing the molecular size of the PEO additives leading to an increased hydrophilicity of the PMMA domains and consequently to control the orientation of microdomains in PSt‐b‐PMMA block copolymer thin films. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Complexation of poly(acrylic acid) and poly(ethylene oxide) investigated by enhanced Rayleigh scattering method

The method of enhanced Rayleigh scattering spectroscopy (ERS) was developed to investigate the complexation of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) in semidilute polymer solutions. Based on the Ornstein‐Zernike equation, the relationship between macromolecular static correlation length and ERS intensity was presented. Moreover, the ERS spectra were calculated by the moving window two‐dimensional (MW2D) correlation spectroscopy to get detailed information of the polymer complexation. The results indicated that the ERS spectroscopy characteristics of the polymer mixtures have similar trend, and the ERS intensity promptly increases as the macromolecular chains contract. The increase of ERS intensity showed that the degree of complexation between PAA and PEO increases when the pH value decreases. The complexation results from the collapse of macromolecular chains, which is induced by the PAA chains contracting and the enhanced association between PAA and PEO chains because of the hydrogen bond formation. In addition, the association resulting from the complexation of PAA and PEO in solution was demonstrated by the MW2D correlation spectroscopy. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
