Precipitation fractionation of block copolymers

open access: yes, 1985
Possibilities offered by classical precipitation fractionation in the preparative separation of polymer admixtures from block copolymers and in an estimate of the polydispersity in molar mass and of the heterogeneity in chemical composition of block ...

Femtosecond‐Laser Mould Texturing Enables Tunable Biointerfaces in COC Microfluidics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Femtosecond‐laser texturing of injection‐mould inserts enables scalable engineering of biointerfaces in cyclic olefin copolymer microfluidics. Replicated micro‐ and nano‐topographies modulate surface roughness and wettability, leading to texture‐dependent protein adsorption and cell adhesion without chemical post‐processing.

Design, synthesis, and characterization of functional block copolymers containing fluorinated or hydrophilic segments by ATRP

open access: yes, 2008
textWell-defined functional block copolymers containing either a fluorinated or a hydrophilic segment can be synthesized via a controlled free-radical technique, known as atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). Their self assembly characteristics in

Light-Responsive Block Copolymers

open access: yes, 2010
Stimuli-responsive polymers are the subject of intense research because they are able to show responses to various environmental changes. Among those stimuli, light has attracted much attention since it can be localized in time and space and it can also ...

Light Switchable Ionic Conductivity of Arylazopyrazole Modified Polysiloxanes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We present a polysiloxane functionalized with a novel arylazopyrazole dye that undergoes reversible photoisomerization. Upon lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide addition and UV irradiation, the polymer exhibits a shift in tan(d) toward higher frequencies and enhanced ionic conductivity.

Model Block Copolymers: Synthesis, Properties and Morphological Characterization

open access: yes, 2014
Block copolymers constitute a fascinating group of polymeric materials belonging to the "soft matter" family. These materials are formed by blocks of polymeric chains from different monomers. In most cases, these blocks are thermodynamically incompatible,

Characterization of Droplet Formation in Ultrasonic Spray Coating: Influence of Ink Formulation Using Phase Doppler Anemometry and Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study explores how machine learning models, trained on small experimental datasets obtained via Phase Doppler Anemometry (PDA), can accurately predict droplet size (D32) in ultrasonic spray coating (USSC). By capturing the influence of ink complexity (solvent, polymer, nanoparticles), power, and flow rate, the model enables precise droplet control

Copolymerization of ε-caprolactone with Epichlorohydrin by a Green Catalyst, Maghnite [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Most of the cationic initiators used in the synthesis of copolymers are expensive. They may be poisoned by products of the reaction or impurities present in the monomer feed, and contain heavy metals, such as chromium, mercury, antimony, etc., that ...
