Bundling in brushes of directed and semiflexible polymers

, 2013
We explore the effect of an attractive interaction between parallel-aligned polymers, which are perpendicularly grafted on a substrate. Such an attractive interaction could be due to, e.g., reversible cross-links.

Polyelectrolyte-Compression Forces between Spherical DNA Brushes

, 2007
Optical tweezers are employed to measure the forces of interaction within a single pair of DNA-grafted colloids in dependence of the molecular weight of the DNA-chains, and the concentration and valence of the surrounding ionic medium.

In-situ-Investigation of Enzyme Immobilization on Polymer Brushes

Frontiers in Chemistry, 2019
Herein, we report on the use of a combined setup of quartz-crystal microbalance, with dissipation monitoring and spectroscopic ellipsometry, to comprehensively investigate the covalent immobilization of an enzyme to a polymer layer.

Cross-link induced shrinkage of grafted Gaussian chains

, 2014
The statistical mechanics of polymers grafted on surfaces has been the subject of intense research activity because of many potential applications. In this paper, we analytically investigate the conformational changes caused by a single cross-link on two

Temperature-modulated interactions between thermoresponsive strong cationic copolymer-brush-grafted silica beads and biomolecules

Heliyon
Thermoresponsive polymer brushes have attracted considerable research attention owing to their unique properties. Herein, we developed silica beads grafted with poly(N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm)-co-3-acrylamidopropyl trimethylammonium chloride (APTAC ...

A versatile platform for precise synthesis of asymmetric molecular brush in one shot

Nature Communications, 2017
Producing well-defined polymer compositions and structures facilitates their use in many different applications. Here the authors show the synthesis of well-defined asymmetric double-brushes by a one-pot concurrent atom transfer radical polymerization ...
