Smart Polymer Surfaces

Macromolecules, 2003
A methodology is demonstrated for creating responsive polymer surfaces that can alter their wetting characteristics when exposed to a humid environment. For this, we take advantage of the surface partitioning of block copolymers at the polymer/air interface and utilize a hydrophilic group at the end of the surface-active block.
