Solution Spraying of Poly(methyl methacrylate) Blends to Fabricate Micro-textured, Superoleophobic Surfaces
We describe a simple technique to prepare superhydrophobic and superoleophobic micro-textured surfaces by spray coating a blend of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and the low surface energy molecule 1H,1H,2H,2H-heptadecafluorodecyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (fluorodecyl POSS, γsv ≈ 10 mN/m) using an air brush with a pressurized nitrogen stream. Scanning electron micrographs show the...
متن کاملTuning the thermoresponsiveness of weak polyelectrolytes by pH and light: lower and upper critical-solution temperature of poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate).
The presence of multivalent counterions induces an upper critical solution temperature (UCST) in addition to the known lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA). The LCST-type cloud points can be adjusted by pH of the buffer, whereas the UCST-type cloud points can be adjusted by the concentration of trivalent counterions. High pH favors th...
متن کاملViscoelastic Properties and Phase Behavior of 12-tert-Butyl Ester Dendrimer/Poly(methyl methacrylate) Blends
This study used refractometry, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and dielectric analysis to assess the viscoelastic properties and phase behavior of blends containing 0–20% (w/w) 12-tert-butyl ester dendrimer in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). Dendritic blends were miscible up through 12%, exhibiting an intermediate g...
متن کاملCation-Induced Hydration Effects Cause Lower Critical Solution Temperature Behavior in Protein Solutions.
The phase behavior of protein solutions is important for numerous phenomena in biology and soft matter. We report a lower critical solution temperature (LCST) phase behavior of aqueous solutions of a globular protein induced by multivalent metal ions around physiological temperatures. The LCST behavior manifests itself via a liquid-liquid phase separation of the protein-salt solution upon heati...
متن کاملSingle molecule tracking studies of lower critical solution temperature transition behavior in poly(N-isopropylacrylamide).
Spatial and temporal heterogeneities in expanded and collapsed surface bound poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), pNIPAAm, films are studied by single molecule tracking (SMT) experiments. Tracking data are analyzed using both radius of gyration (R(g)) evolution and confinement level calculations to elucidate the range of behaviors displayed by single Rhodamine6G (R6G) molecules. Confined diffusion that...
