Effect of polymer surface modification on polymer-protein interaction via hydrophilic polymer grafting.
Surface modification of flat sheet ultrafiltration membranes, polyethersulfone (PES), was investigated to improve the hydrophilicity of the membrane surface thereby reducing adsorption of the proteins onto the membrane. Grafting of hydrophilic polymers onto UV/ozone-treated PES was used to improve the hydrophilicity of the commercial PES membranes. Hydrophilic polymers, that is, poly(vinyl alco...
متن کاملMesoscopic description of solvent effects on polymer dynamics.
Solvent effects on polymer dynamics and structure are investigated using a mesoscopic solvent model that accounts for hydrodynamic interactions among the polymer beads. The simulation method combines molecular dynamics of the polymer chain, interacting with the solvent molecules through intermolecular forces, with mesoscopic multiparticle collision dynamics for the solvent molecules. Changes in...
متن کاملsurface-initiated polymerization: the characterization of polymer chain conformation, grafting density and polydispersity correlated to the grafting surface curvature
In our model, the immobile frozen particles are used to construct the spherical surface template of the NP. For a specific NP with determined radius, we first use the geodesic subdivision method to get all the vertex positions. This method is a repeated subdivision process of triangles. Starting with an icosahedron inscribed in the sphere, we first find the midpoint of each edge, and then push ...
متن کاملAn Nmr Study on Solvent - Polymer Interactions
Approximately 80 percent of all synthetic polymers used are cross-linked polymers, unfortunately the characterization of cross-linked polymers has not kept up with their use. This study tries to help in the characterization of cross-linked polymer systems. More specifically the interactions of cross-linked polymer systems with solvents will be probed. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectromet...
متن کاملQuantifying surface roughness effects on phonon transport in silicon nanowires.
Although it has been qualitatively demonstrated that surface roughness can reduce the thermal conductivity of crystalline Si nanowires (SiNWs), the underlying reasons remain unknown and warrant quantitative studies and analysis. In this work, vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) grown SiNWs were controllably roughened and then thoroughly characterized with transmission electron microscopy to obtain detaile...
