Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Materials scientists are often faced with the problem of modifying surfaces of objects, yet keeping their shape and properties. This book provides a detailed survey on the new technology of adsorption from solution for the fabrication of molecularly ordered multicomposite films in order to replace and expand on the well known Langmuir-Blodgett technology and to open the field of molecular self-assembly to materials and biosciences. The book is aimed at scientists who want to integrate several different functional entities in a single device. To this audience it presents the technique of layer-by-layer assembly as today's most powerful key technology, which is low cost, solution based and very robust. It is already beginning to make the transition from academic research into industrial mass production.

Download or read book Layer by Layer Directly Assembly of Polyelectrolyte Multilayers with Foaming Structures written by Lihua Xu and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, dynamic Layer-by-Layer (LbL) assembly of multilayer thin films has been widely recognized for many reasons, especially for its versatile functionality and ease of fabrication. Films can be fabricated towards huge amounts of materials, such as polyelectrolytes, organic components, polymeric microgels, etc. Through the long history of LbL assembly research, few papers proposed ideas of making porous films or foamed films directly or indirectly, as foamed material contained plenty of pores, which could be used in insulation materials and fast food-packages. In several papers, the step of acid treatment aimed for irreversible structure transformation applied into films fabricated by the LbL assembly method. This indirect method makes procedures more complex, so direct fabrication with LbL is necessary. However, time-consuming problems and challenges from external environmental factors still limits the development of this technique. In this thesis, a facile fabrication of porous films through the LbL assembly method was introduced. Strong polyelectrolyte, polycation poly(diallyldimethylammonium-chloride) (PolyDADMAC) and polyanion poly(styrene sulfonate acid) (PSSA) are utilized as the original material. And PolyDADMAC was slightly modified by sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in order to get the bicarbonate structure at the side groups along the chain of the polyelectrolyte. In order to deeply study the films, some other particles, such as the surfactant brij-76 and RDS laponite were added into certain solutions for comparison. Films were achieved by alternately putting clean glass slides into the polycation and polyanion solutions with the rinsing step in between. 20-bilayer film can be achieved after repeating the procedures above 20 times. The principle is that the bicarbonate functional group will react with the hydrogen ions for the sake of letting the gas carbon dioxide out and then make the porous structure throughout the film. The morphology of the films measured by an atomic force microscope (AFM) and a scanning electron microscope (SEM) shows that porous structures are obvious through the whole film when no sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) is added into the anion solution. The results help to solve the problem of directly making the foaming films as well as simplifying the procedures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the interface of biology, chemistry, and materials science, this book provides an overview of this vibrant research field, treating the seemingly distinct disciplines in a unified way by adopting the common viewpoint of surface science. The editors, themselves prolific researchers, have assembled here a team of top-notch international scientists who read like a "who's who" of biomaterials science and engineering. They cover topics ranging from micro- and nanostructuring for imparting functionality in a top-down manner to the bottom-up fabrication of gradient surfaces by self-assembly, from interfaces between biomaterials and living matter to smart, stimuli-responsive surfaces, and from cell and surface mechanics to the elucidation of cell-chip interactions in biomedical devices. As a result, the book explains the complex interplay of cell behavior and the physics and materials science of artificial devices. Of equal interest to young, ambitious scientists as well as to experienced researchers.
