Stimuli-response of charged diblock copolymer brushes.
Following our previous work on the solvent-response of uncharged diblock copolymer brushes (D. Meng and Q. Wang, J. Chem. Phys. 130, 134904 (2009)), we have performed continuum self-consistent field calculations to study the response (i.e., changes of brush height and surface-layer composition) of diblock brushes with only one block charged to various external stimuli, including solvent selecti...
متن کاملStimuli-Responsive Polymer Brushes for Flow Control through Nanopores
Responsive polymers attached to the inside of nano/micro-pores have attracted great interest owing to the prospect of designing flow-control devices and signal responsive delivery systems. An intriguing possibility involves functionalizing nanoporous materials with smart polymers to modulate biomolecular transport in response to pH, temperature, ionic concentration, light or electric field. The...
متن کاملUltrathin, freestanding, stimuli-responsive, porous membranes from polymer hydrogel-brushes.
The fabrication of freestanding, sub-100 nm-thick, pH-responsive hydrogel membranes with controlled nano-morphology, based on modified poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) is presented. Polymer hydrogel-brush films were first synthesized by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) and subsequently detached from silicon substrates by UV-induced photo-cleavage of a spec...
متن کاملResponsive Polymer Brushes
The review focuses on responsive/switching behavior of polymer brushes. The structure of the polymer brushes is analyzed in terms of the constitution and conformation of polymer chains. Responsive properties are widely discussed based on phase transition mechanisms in a controlled environment when changes are induced by solvent quality, temperature, concentration of ions, and interactions with ...
متن کاملNanopatterned polymer brushes: conformation, fabrication and applications.
Surfaces with end-grafted, nanopatterned polymer brushes that exhibit well-defined feature dimensions and controlled chemical and physical properties provide versatile platforms not only for investigation of nanoscale phenomena at biointerfaces, but also for the development of advanced devices relevant to biotechnology and electronics applications. In this review, we first give a brief introduc...
