Surface segregation amplification in miscible polymer blends near criticality
– In atomic, small molecule or polymeric multicomponent materials, surface compositions naturally differ from the bulk because one component (or phase) will generally favor the surface region. Binary polymer blends represent a model system to investigate surface enrichment because segregation is enhanced by the small combinatorial entropy of mixing and amplified by chain connectivity (relative ...
متن کاملInterfacial segregation in polymer blends driven by acid-base interactions.
Infrared-visible sum frequency generation spectroscopy (SFG) was used to measure the interfacial concentrations of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/polystyrene (PS) blends next to a sapphire substrate. The acid-base interactions of carbonyl groups of PMMA with the hydroxyl groups on the sapphire drive the interfacial segregation of PMMA next to the sapphire substrate. Using the shift of sapphir...
متن کاملSurface Characterization of Polymer Blends by XPS and ToF-SIMS
The surface properties of polymer blends are important for many industrial applications. The physical and chemical properties at the surface of polymer blends can be drastically different from those in the bulk due to the surface segregation of the low surface energy component. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and time-of-flight secondary mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) have been widely used...
متن کاملSurface Segregation Phenomena in Blends of Cellulose Esters
The principle of surface segregation and subsequent self-assembly of mixtures of molecules has been utilized to create cellulosic films that have properties characteristic of smart materials. This has been achieved by solventcasting a blend of cellulose propionate and an fluorine (F)-containing cellulose ester derivative. Evidence suggests that surface segregation of the F-containing species ta...
