Impact of solvent quality on tribological properties of polymer brushes
Научно-технический вестник информационных технологий, механики и оптикиPolymer brushes, as modifying coatings, significantly improve the tribological properties of various contacting surfaces. The friction that arises when an external load is applied and the polymer brushes laterally shift relative to each other is ...

Influence of Solutes on Hydration and Lubricity of Dextran Brushes
CHIMIA, 2012 The characteristic lubricity and non-fouling behavior of polymer brushes is critically dependent on the solvation of the polymer chains, as well as the chain–chain interactions.

Investigating the structure of crosslinked polymer brushes (brush-gels) by means of Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy [PDF]
, 2018 Polymer brushes can be useful as small-scale reactors for the controlled synthesis of nanoparticles, an approach which is gaining increasing interest. In this context, chemical crosslinking of polymer brushes could be considered as a viable approach to ...

Self-regenerating giant hyaluronan polymer brushes
Nature Communications, 2019 Polymer brushes are often used to functionalise surfaces. Here, the authors report on the creation of high-density, regenerating hyaluronan brushes using hyaluronan synthase enzymes which can be patterned by photo-deactivation and demonstrate ...
