The application of well‐defined poly(furfuryl glycidyl ether) (PFGE) homopolymers and poly(ethylene oxide)‐b‐poly(furfuryl glycidyl ether) (PEO‐b‐PFGE) block copolymers synthesized by living anionic polymerization as self‐healing materials is demonstrated. This is achieved by thermo‐reversible network formation via (retro) Diels‐Alder chemistry between the furan groups in the side‐chain of the PFGE segments and a bifunctional maleimide crosslinker within drop‐cast polymer films. The process is studied in detail by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), depth‐sensing indentation, and profilometry. It is shown that such materials are capable of healing complex scratch patterns, also multiple times. Furthermore, microphase separation within PEO‐b‐PFGE block copolymer films is indicated by small angle X‐ray scattering (lamellar morphology with a domain spacing of approximately 19 nm), differential scanning calorimetry, and contact angle measurements. 相似文献

Self‐healing electronic materials are of primary interest for bioelectronics and sustainable electronics. In this work, autonomic self‐healing of films obtained from mixtures of the conducting polymer poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) doped with polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) is reported. The presence of PEG in PEDOT:PSS films decreases the elastic modulus and increases the elongation at break, thus leading to a softer material with enhanced self‐healing characteristics. In situ imaging of the cutting/healing process shows that the healing mechanism is likely due to flowing back of the material to the damaged area right after the cutting. 相似文献

Protein adsorption and reversible cell attachment are investigated as a function of the grafting density of poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) brushes. Prior studies demonstrated that the thermally driven collapse of grafted PNIPAM above the lower critical solution temperature of 32 °C is not required for protein adsorption. Here, the dependence of reversible, protein‐mediated cell adhesion on the polymer chain density, above and below the lower critical solution temperature, is reported. Above 32 °C, protein adsorption on PNIPAM brushes grafted from a non‐adsorbing, oligo(ethylene oxide)‐coated surface exhibits a maximum with respect to the grafting density. Few cells attach to either dilute or densely grafted PNIPAM chains, independent of whether the polymer brush collapses above 32 °C. However, both cells and proteins adsorb reversibly at intermediate chain densities. This supports a model in which the proteins, which support reversible cell attachment, adsorb by penetrating the brushes at intermediate grafting densities, under poor solvent conditions. In this scenario, reversible protein adsorption to PNIPAM brushes is determined by the thermal modulation of relative protein‐segment attraction and osmotic repulsion. 相似文献

A novel Lewis acid‐catalysed self‐healing system is investigated for implementation into epoxy‐based fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials. The catalyst, scandium(III) triflate, is selected using a qualitative approach and subsequently embedded with pre‐synthesised epoxy‐solvent loaded microcapsules, into an epoxy resin. Healing is initiated when microcapsules are ruptured at the onset of crack propagation. The epoxy monomer healing agent contained within actively undergoes ring‐opening polymerisation (ROP) on contact with the locally dispersed catalyst, forming a new polymer to bridge the two fractured crack planes. Self‐healing performance is quantified using a tapered double cantilever beam (TDCB) test specimen and the effects of microcapsule content and healing temperature and time are all independently considered. As an initial ‘proof of concept’ study, results show that a material recovery value of greater than 80% fracture strength is achieved for this novel Lewis acid‐catalysed self‐healing epoxy resin. 相似文献

As a new concept, a self‐crosslink mechanism for hydrothermal synthesis of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) aerogel, assisted by multiwall carbon nanotubes, is reported. PVA, working as a low‐cost and commercially available raw material, exempts the complicated synthesis process and reserves its nontoxic nature since no organic crosslinkers are used in the synthesis process. The crosslink density and many other properties of the products can be easily tuned by simply altering the concentration of PVA precursors, which is considered to be another feature of our method. Dehydration between hydroxyl groups occurs in the hydrothermal process, leading to a reverse wettability of the products from hydrophilic to hydrophobic, thus their absorbing capacity for several organic solvents, such as bean oil and crude oil, is investigated. The absorbate has 10–52 times the original weight of the aerogel. As exhibited by the cytotoxic tests, the product has neglectable toxicity, suitable for application in environmental bioengineering. Furthermore, the product can be used as a facile substrate for transformation into conductive aerogel by in situ hybridizing with polypyrrole, showing a conductivity of 0.16 S m?1. As it is rich in hydroxyl groups, the aerogels are believed to be further functionalized by the reactions related to the hydroxyl group. 相似文献

For mitochondria‐targeting delivery, a coupling reaction between poly(ε‐caprolactone) diol (PCL diol) and 4‐carboxybutyltriphenylphosphonium (4‐carboxybutyl TPP) results in the synthesis of amphiphilic TPP‐PCL‐TPP (TPCL) polymers with a bola‐like structure. In aqueous environments, the TPCL polymer self‐assembled via cosolvent dispersion and film hydration, resulting in the formation of cationic nanoparticles (NPs) less than 50 nm in size with zeta‐potentials of approximately 40 mV. Interestingly, different preparation methods for TPCL NPs result in various morphologies such as nanovesicles, nanofibers, and nanosheets. In vitro cytotoxicity results with TPCL NPs indicate IC50 values of approximately 10–60 μg mL?1, suggesting their potential as anticancer nanodrugs. TPCL NPs can be loaded both with hydrophobic doxorubicin (Dox) and its hydrophilic salt form (Dox·HCl), and their drug loading contents are approximately 2–10 wt% depending on the loading method and the hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity of the drugs. Although Dox·HCl exhibits more cellular and nuclear uptake, resulting in greater antitumor effects than Dox, most drug‐loaded TPCL NPs exhibit higher mitochondrial uptake and approximately 2–7‐fold higher mitochondria‐to‐nucleus preference than free drugs, resulting in superior (approximately 7.5–18‐fold) tumor‐killing activity for most drug‐loaded TPCL NPs compared with free drugs. In conclusion, TPCL‐based nanoparticles have potential both as antitumor nanodrugs themselves and as nanocarriers for chemical therapeutics. 相似文献

Using fibrinogen (Fg) protein as a probe molecule, mapping using accumulated probe trajectories (MAPT) is performed on nanostructured melt‐drawn high‐density poly(ethylene) (HDPE) films composed of well‐oriented crystalline patches separated by amorphous regions. The spatially grouped molecular trajectories allow for identification of regions with distinct surface properties (i.e., crystalline vs. amorphous) while simultaneously determining the characteristic dynamic protein behavior within those regions. In the presence of solution with a sufficiently high Fg concentration, discrete patches of a dense, ordered protein layer form (presumably on crystalline HDPE regions), leading to a dramatic rise in the surface residence time (by more than two orders of magnitude) of molecules incorporated into the film. Within this ordered Fg layer, individual molecules exhibit slow anisotropic lateral diffusion; the mobility is restricted by the nanostructure boundaries of the underlying HDPE. On HDPE films at low Fg surface coverage, or on films that have been rendered hydrophilic with Ar plasma, short surface residence times and fast, isotropic diffusion are observed. These results demonstrate the ability of spatially resolved single‐molecule tracking to provide mechanistic information about biomolecule‐surface interactions in a highly heterogeneous environment. 相似文献

Highly regioregular (RR) poly(3‐hexylthiophene)s PHTs are known to exhibit excellent electrical properties in comparison to chemically identical but regiorandom (rr) PHTs. In this study, distinct RR (97% and 55%)‐graded PHTs are subjected to solution blending to spontaneously separate the high‐RR PHT chains from the low‐RR PHT media and develop highly conjugated nanodomains in both solution and film. In the spun‐cast blend films, the rr PHT matrix imparts sufficient deformability of the channel layer required for stretchable organic thin‐film transistors (OTFTs), compared to neat RR PHTs and blends with a deformable polymer. OTFTs including RR PHT/rr PHT blend films show excellent hole mobility (µ) values up to 0.13 cm2 V?1 s?1, surpassing that of the best RR PHT films (0.026 cm2 V?1 s?1) fabricated by ultrasound solution pretreatment. Furthermore, a 50% stretched RR PHT/rr PHT film maintains ≈55% of its µ value at no strain, while RR PHT films show a sudden decrease in µ even at 10% stretch. The simple blending approach imparts deformability to π‐conjugated polymer films for application in stretchable OTFTs. 相似文献

Polymer solar cells (PSCs) with poly(3‐hexylthiophene) (P3HT) as a donor, an indene‐C70 bisadduct (IC70BA) as an acceptor, a layer of indium tin oxide modified by MoO3 as a positive electrode, and Ca/Al as a negative electrode are presented. The photovoltaic performance of the PSCs was optimized by controlling spin‐coating time (solvent annealing time) and thermal annealing, and the effect of the spin‐coating times on absorption spectra, X‐ray diffraction patterns, and transmission electron microscopy images of P3HT/IC70BA blend films were systematically investigated. Optimized PSCs were obtained from P3HT/IC70BA (1:1, w/w), which exhibited a high power conversion efficiency of 6.68%. The excellent performance of the PSCs is attributed to the higher crystallinity of P3HT and better a donor–acceptor interpenetrating network of the active layer prepared under the optimized conditions. In addition, PSCs with a poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxy‐thiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) buffer layer under the same optimized conditions showed a PCE of 6.20%. The results indicate that the MoO3 buffer layer in the PSCs based on P3HT/IC70BA is superior to that of the PEDOT:PSS buffer layer, not only showing a higher device stability but also resulting in a better photovoltaic performance of the PSCs. 相似文献

The ability to tune both the thermal and mechanical properties of poly(1,3,5‐hexahydro‐1,3,5‐triazine)s (PHTs) is critical to meet the increasingly stringent demands of structural materials. To this end, PHTs are modified during the process of vitrification using a reactive blending technique. Two strategies are employed: (i) the incorporation of a monomer or oligomer that contains amino end groups that are integrated into the network via hemiaminal chemistry and (ii) the incorporation of functional monomers bearing reactive end groups capable of self‐polymerization, as well as insertion by copolymerization with the PHT‐forming reagents to form mixed networks. Both strategies produce homogeneous materials, mitigating any adverse thermal properties of the parent PHT material. Here, a deposition method bringing the PHT technology platform to more diverse, economical and large‐scale applications is also introduced. A unique layer‐by‐layer spray‐coating approach of solutions containing 4,4′‐oxydianiline (ODA) and multifunctional amines obtained by conjugate addition to acrylates is developed, allowing for the preparation of large‐scale PHT‐polymer blend films. The ODA–PHT enables high strength and modulus of the final material, while incorporation of acrylates provide an economical approach to polymer blends with tremendous functional group diversity and will allow for recyclability under mild conditions. 相似文献

The functionalization of a hydrogel with target molecules is one of the key steps in its various applications. Here, a versatile approach is demonstrated to functionalize a micropatterned hydrogel, which is formed by “thiol‐yne” photo‐click reaction between the yne‐ended hyperbranched poly(ether amine) (hPEA‐yne) and thiol‐containing polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (PEG‐POSS‐SH). By controlling the molar ratio between hPEA‐yne and PEG‐POSS‐SH, patterned hydrogels containing thiol or yne groups are obtained. A series of thiol‐based click chemistry such as “thiol‐epoxy”, “thiol‐halogen”, “thiol‐ene”, and “thiol‐isocyanate” are used to functionalize the thiol‐containing hydrogel (Gel‐1), while the yne‐containing hydrogel (Gel‐2) is functionalized through a typical copper‐catalysed alkyne‐azide reaction (CuAAC). FTIR, UV‐vis spectra and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) are used to trace these click reactions. Due to the selective adsorption to the hydrophilic dyes, the obtained patterned hydrogel of hPEA modified with fluorescence dye is further demonstrated in application for the recognition of guest molecules. 相似文献

In order to transfer the potential for the high efficiencies seen for Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGSe) thin films from co‐evaporation processes to cheaper large‐scale deposition techniques, a more intricate understanding of the CIGSe growth process for high‐quality material is required. Hence, the growth mechanism for chalcopyrite‐type thin films when varying the Cu content during a multi‐stage deposition process is studied. Break‐off experiments help to understand the intermediate growth stages of the thin‐film formation. The film structure and morphology are studied by X‐ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The different phases at the film surface are identified by Raman spectroscopy. Depth‐resolved compositional analysis is carried out via glow discharge optical emission spectrometry. The experimental results imply an affinity of Na for material phases with a Cu‐poor composition, affirming a possible interaction of sodium with Cu vacancies mainly via In(Ga)Cu antisite defects. An efficiency of 12.7% for vacancy compound‐based devices is obtained. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

1D poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) nanomaterials, including ellipsoidal nanoparticles, nanorods, and nanotubes, are fabricated via chemical oxidation polymerization in reverse (water‐in‐oil) microemulsions. The reverse cylindrical micelles are prepared with sodium bis(2‐ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT) and aqueous FeCl3 solution in hexane. The morphology of the final products is determined by carefully tuning the degree of oxidation potential at the micelle surface. Notably, the fabrication of gram‐scale amounts of products is possible under optimized synthetic conditions, suggesting that this methodology is appropriate for the large‐scale production of the corresponding nanomaterials. The as‐prepared PEDOT nanomaterials are applied to the precise detection of alcohol vapors. The chemical sensors based on the PEDOT nanomaterials present excellent reversibility and reproducibility in response. 相似文献

We investigate the influence of annealing conditions on the physical properties of thin films of poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT/PSS). In particular, we describe how annealing temperature, the ambient gas, and choice of dopant affect the conductivity, morphology, and work function of the films. Two specific dopants are considered, sorbitol and glycerol, and broad guidelines are developed for using PEDOT/PSS as a hole‐injection electrode in polymeric light‐emitting devices, solar cells, and photodetectors. 相似文献

The extensive use of Earth stations located on board sea going vessels (ESVs) has created the necessity for the development of a new type of co‐ordination area around the fixed service receivers (FSRs) operating in frequency bands C and Ku. To date there is not a single method concerning the calculation of the co‐ordination area around the FSRs, which takes into account the mobility of the interfering stations. This paper addresses an in‐depth analysis of the interference produced to the FSRs by the ESVs and proposes a new method for the development of the co‐ordination area around the FSRs, taking into account parameters such as the velocity of the ESVs and their frequencies of passage from specific locations. Simulations performed for three different operational scenarios prove the validity of the new methodology. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献
