Viscoelastic Properties of Unentangled Multicyclic Polystyrenes

, 2018
We report on the viscoelastic properties of linear, monocyclic, and multicyclic polystyrenes with the same low molecular weight. All polymers investigated were found to exhibit unentangled dynamics.

Control of Bacterial Attachment on Macroporous PDMS/Paraffin SLIPS With Varying Lubricant Viscosity

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Slippery liquid‐infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) prepared from macroporous PDMS, infused with medical‐grade paraffins, were systematically investigated regarding the correlation of viscosity, surface corrugation, bulk porosity, and bacterial resistance. Substrate porosity was found to dominate lubricant stabilization and the antifouling activity.

Mechanical Mapping of Thin Elastic Films and Living Cells With Spherical Tip Atomic Force Microscopy Probes at Large Indentations

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A new explicit semi‐analytical model for elasticity determination by AFM is presented using spherical probes. The model, validated with numerical simulations, is applied to the study of polyacrylamide hydrogel films and macrophage cells, showing excellent agreement with the experimental data. It is foreseen its wide applicability to obtain quantitative

Ultra‐White Elastomeric Coatings for Daytime Radiative Cooling

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Passive daytime radiative cooling meets elasticity in a new class of ultra‐white silicone coatings. Combining high solar reflectance with strong sky‐window emission, they hold surfaces below ambient temperature under full sunlight while remaining flexible and stretchable. This combination of cooling performance and mechanical flexibility enables energy‐

Improved analysis of ultra‐high molecular mass polystyrenes in matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry using DCTB matrix and caesium salts

, 2015
Rationale The ionization of polystyrenes in matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) is typically achieved by the use of silver salts. Since silver salts can cause severe problems, such as cluster formation, fragmentation
