Effect of surface roughness and chemical composition on the wetting properties of silicon-based substrates

The article reports on the wetting properties of silicon-based materials as a function of their roughness and chemical composition. The investigated surfaces consist of hydrogen-terminated and chemically modified atomically flat crystalline silicon, porous silicon and silicon nanowires. The hydrogenated surfaces are functionalized with 1-octadecene or undecylenic acid under thermal conditions. The changes occurring upon surface functionalization are characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectroscopy and water contact angle measurements. By increasing the surface roughness, the static water contact angle increases. The combination of high surface roughness with chemical functionalization with water repellent coating (1-octadecene) enables reaching superhydrophobicity (water contact angle greater than 150°) for silicon nanowires.     

Surface modification of ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene fibers by chromic acid

Ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers were modified by chromic acid. The effects of surface modification were evaluated with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), contact angle measurement, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results showed that both the content of O‐containing functional groups and surface roughness of modified fibers increased. The polar groups on the modified fiber surface decreased the contact angles with water and ethylene glycol, as evidenced by contact angle measurement. The tensile test results showed the strength and the elongation at break of UHMWPE fibers decreased but the modulus increased after chromic acid modification.

Functionalization of Biodegradable Polyester for Tissue Engineering Applications

Summary: Chemical modification of polymer surface may potentially be used to create smart materials that can guide cellular adhesion, proliferation and maintenance of specific expression of molecules. The microbial polyester poly (3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) has been attracted attention as promising material for applications in tissue engineering. In this work, a wet-chemical method, base ethylenediamine aminolysis, was performed to improve the adhesion of chondrocytes isolated from human articular cartilage to PHB films. The effects of chemical treatment on PHB films was evaluated by following changes in morphology and surface chemical composition using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. While the effect on cells morphology was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The treatment with ethylenediamine did not change significantly the morphology of the structures of PHB films surface. However, the roughness of the aminolyzed films was slightly higher. The introduction of nitrogen-containing groups was confirmed by XPS. In vitro experiments indicated that the surface modification did not have toxic effects in cells, since they could adhere and proliferate on modified PHB films. It was observed that long-time treatment improved ability of PHB films to support cell growth, which could be accounted to physicochemical and topological effects.     

Development and characterization of a wettable surface modified aromatic polyethersulphone using glow discharge induced HEMA-graft polymerisation

The aromatic polyethersulphone (PES) is a well known polymer for the preparation of membranes with excellent thermal stability and chemical resistance. The disadvantage of PES-membranes is their hydrophobic character, which in contact with protein containing solutions leads to high protein adsorption and as a consequence to deterioration of membrane properties. In this report the surface modification of PES by means of glow discharge induced grafting of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) is described. Graft polymerisation creates a largely wettable layer of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) on the surface of PES. This has been shown by contact angle measurements using the Wilhelmy plate method. Chemical characterization is carried out by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and infrared spectroscopy/attentuated total reflection (FTIR-ATR). The influence of storage conditions on the surface properties of modified PES samples has been investigated after storage in vacuum, water, and air.

Study of the Preparation of a Modified Lubricant Using a W/O Microemulsion Reactor and a Cyclic Voltammetry Study of Rubbing Steel S45C with Lubricants

A successful preparation of a Schiff base copper complex was carried out directly in rap oil, using a W/O microemulsion reactor. The prepared Schiff base copper complex dispersed equably and spontaneously in the oil. Owing to a modification of the rap oil, by addition of 2%wt of Cu (II) chelate of bissalicylaldehyde-ethylenediamine, the friction coefficient decreased by 80% compared to that of the original one. It was verified by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses that steel/steel rubbing pairs underwent a selective transferring process with such modified lubricants. It was suggested that the mechanism for the improvement in the tribological characteristics of the modified lubricants was due to a selective transferring effect. The Cu (II) chelate of bissalicylaldehyde-ethylenediamine not only served as an additive in the rap oil, but also self-assembled on the surface of the 100Cr6 steel. The self-assembled monolayer (SAM) was examined using SEM techniques. The SAM was characterized with cyclic voltammetry (CV). It indicated that the SAM could activate the rubbing surface of 100Cr6 steel, which benefited the tribological chemical reaction.     

A study of surface modification and anchoring techniques used in the preparation of monolithic microcolumns in fused silica capillaries

Based on a survey of the literature on pretreatment of fused silica capillaries, 3 etching procedures and 11 silanization protocols based on the vinylic silane 3-((trimethoxysilyl)propyl) methacrylate (gamma-MAPS) were found to be most representative as a means of ensuring attachment of in situ prepared vinylic polymers. These techniques were applied to fused silica capillaries and the success in establishing the intended surface modification was assessed. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to characterize the chemical state of the surface, providing information regarding presence of the reagent bound to the capillary. Wetting angles were measured and correlated with the XPS results. An adherence test was done by photopolymerization of a 2 mm long plug of 1,6-butanediol dimethacrylate in the prepared capillaries and evaluation of its ability to withstand applied hydraulic pressure. SEM was also performed in cases where the plug was released or other irregularities were observed. Finally, the roughness of the etched surface, considered to be of importance, was assessed by atomic force microscopy. Alkaline etching at elevated temperature provided a surface roughness promoting adhesion. The commonly used silanization protocols involving water in the silanization or washing steps gave inadequate surface treatment. The best silanization procedure was based on toluene as a solvent.     

A novel dual surface modification on titanium in dental use: Characterization and topography

This laboratory study aimed to compare, contrast, and evaluate the effect of a novel dual surface modification method on the adhesion strength of resin composite cement to titanium. C.p.-2 grade titanium samples were silica-coated, etched with HNO₃(69vol %) or a blend of HCl (35vol %) and H₃PO₄ (85vol %), for 1 h at 80°C. Surface roughness was measured by surface roughness profilometry, topographic analysis by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and surface analyses by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Silanization of all specimens was carried out after SEM, EDX, and AFM analysis, before enclosed mold microshear bond strength testing (EM-μSBS). Adhesion strengths were measured after artificial ageing: 1 day, 1 week, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks by EM-μSBS testing and failure mode analysis by optical microscopy. Polished titanium was used as a control. The highest surface roughness was observed in titanium samples treated with silica-coating + HCl-H₃PO₄ etching. The elemental composition confirmed the presence of Ti, O, C, with Si and Al in samples treated with silica-coating. A gradual decrease in EM-μSBS values was observed in all titanium samples with adhesive and cohesive failure modes. The novel dual surface modification method applied in this study suggests that silica-coating + HCl-H₃PO₄etching strongly affects titanium surface topography and roughness. The presence of Si on silica-coated surface modified titanium before silanization with an experimental silane has a positive effect on the EM-μSBS of titanium samples treated with silica-coating only or silica-coating + HNO₃ etching.     

Impact of titanate coupling agent on properties of high density polyethylene composite filled with coal gangue

In this study, surface modification of coal gangue (CG) was performed with titanate coupling agent 201 (isopropyl tri(dioctylpyrophosphate) titanate), and the effects of surface modifier on mechanical properties and thermal stability of high-density polyethylene filled with CG (HDPE/CG) and high-density polyethylene filled with modified CG (HDPE/mCG) composites were investigated. The coupling agent was successfully grafted on CG surface through chemical reaction according to the analyses of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the coupling agent can effectively enhance the hydrophobicity of surface that was verified by water contact angle beyond 90° of modified CG sample. With the introduction of coupling agent, some enhancements of tensile strength, flexural strength, and impact strength were observed in HDPE/mCG compared with HDPE/CG, due to the improved compatibility between mCG fillers and matrix. The increased storage modulus and decreased loss factor of HDPE/mCG composite further confirm the stronger interface adhesion after modification. Moreover, it is found that titanate coupling agent 201 can improve the thermal stability of HDPE/mCG composite to some extent.     

Surface analysis of stearic acid modification for improving thermal resistant of calcium phosphate coated iron oxide yellow pigments

In order to widen the application of iron oxide yellow pigments (α-FeOOH) in high temperature industry, α-FeOOH coated with calcium phosphate (α-FeOOH/Ca) were modified with stearic acid (Sa) through dry process. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and thermogravimetry (TG) were employed to characterize the effect of surface modification. The effects of Sa dosage on the thermal resistance of α-FeOOH/Ca after modification were also discussed. The crystal structure of α-FeOOH/Ca does not change after modification with Sa, but the ratio of length to diameter about α-FeOOH/Ca is smaller. Sa can react with α-FeOOH/Ca in the form of –COOCa and HPO₄²⁻ based on FT-IR and XPS analyses. TG-DTG results suggest that calcium phosphate and Sa improve the thermal stability of α-FeOOH. The value of color difference of modified α-FeOOH/Ca first decrease and then increase with increasing of Sa dosage, which is studied by CIE ΔL, Δa, and Δb colorimetric analyses. The amount of Sa affects the thermal resistance and dispersion performance of α-FeOOH/Ca simultaneously; also the relationship between thermal resistance and dispersion is inversely proportional. Experimental characterizations reveal that introduction of the phosphates and Sa not only prevents the loss of water on the surface of α-FeOOH but improve its activation index and dispersibility in organic solvents.
