Influence of a surfactant on single ion track etching: Preparing and manipulating cylindrical micro wires

The influence of the alkali resistant surfactant Dowfax 2A1 on single ion track etching in 30 lm polycarbonate foils is studied at low etch rate (5 M NaOH at 41.5 ± 2 C) using electro conductivity measurements. At surfactant concentrations above 10 4 vol.% breakthrough times are predictable (Dt/t < 0.25). At high surfactant concentrations (P0.1 vol.%) the formation of cylindrical channels is fa...

Influence of asymmetric etching on ion track shapes in polycarbonate

By combining low-energy ion irradiation with asymmetric etching, conical nanopores of controlled geometry can be etched in polycarbonate (PC). Cone bases vary from 0.5 to 1μm. Top diameters down to 17 nm are reached.. When etching from one side, the pH on the other side (bathed in neutral or acidic buffer) was monitored. Etching temperature ranged from 65°C to 80°C. Pore shape characterization ...

Heavy Ion Track-Etching of PEEK Membranes

Heavy ion tracks in polymer membranes can be transformed into microand nano-channels by means of wet-chemical etching. Up to now most commonly polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene therephthalate (PET) and polyimide (PI) membranes were employed for this purpose. For some applications such as proton conductive membranes for fuel cells, high resistance of the material against heat and solvents as well...

High-sensitivity ion track-etching of poly(vinylidene fluoride) membranes

Quite recently, ion-track membranes of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) have attracted a renewed interest for their applications to next-generation electrochemical devices such as fuel cells [1,2]. In order to produce tracketched pores in PVDF films, several kinds of etching solutions were previously employed. In most cases [3], a highly concentrated aqueous KOH solution with a KMnO4 additive w...

Surfactant-Assisted Etching of Nanochannels

The fabrication and functionalization of synthetic nanochannels has in the last years become of increasing interest for basic research as well as for applications. Nanochannels have an especially high surface-to-volume ratio which makes them ideal for handling very small amounts of liquid in nanofluidic devices or for designing highly sensitive sensing elements. In contrast to their biological ...
