Deformation propagation in responsive polymer network films.
We study the elastic deformations in a cross-linked polymer network film triggered by the binding of submicron particles with a sticky surface, mimicking the interactions of viral pathogens with thin films of stimulus-responsive polymeric materials such as hydrogels. From extensive Langevin Dynamics simulations we quantify how far the network deformations propagate depending on the elasticity p...
متن کاملThermally Responsive Interpenetrating Polymer Network Nanoparticles
Stimuli-responsive polymer hydrogels which are capable of responding to changes in their environment such as pH (1), osmotic strength (2), or temperature (3) have received growing attention in recent years for applications in a wide variety of areas including controlled drug delivery (4). Also, due to the size limitations imposed by the body’s natural defense mechanisms, such as the reticuloend...
متن کاملSubmicrometric Films of Surface-Attached Polymer Network with Temperature-Responsive Properties.
Temperature-responsive properties of surface-attached poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) network films with well-controlled chemistry are investigated. The synthesis consists of cross-linking and grafting preformed ene-reactive polymer chains through thiol-ene click chemistry. The formation of surface-attached and cross-linked polymer films has the advantage of being well-controlled without a...
متن کاملDesign of polarization-dependent, flexural-torsional deformation in photo responsive liquid crystalline polymer networks.
Light responsive materials that exhibit wirelessly actuated, multidimensional deformation are excellent candidates for programmable matter applications such as morphing structures or soft robotics. A central challenge to designing adaptive structures from these materials is the ability accurately predict three dimensional deformations. Previous modeling efforts have focused almost exclusively o...
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 ...
