The anchoring of polymer chains at solid surfaces is an efficient way to modify interfacial properties like the stability and rheology of colloidal dispersions, lubrication and biocompatibility. Polyelectrolytes are good candidates for the building of smart materials, as the polyion chain conformation can often be tuned by manipulation of different physico-chemical variables. However, achieving efficient and reversible control of this process represents an important technological challenge. In this regard, the application of an external electrical stimulus on polyelectrolytes seems to be a convenient control strategy, for several reasons. First, it is relatively easy to apply an electric field to the material with adequate spatiotemporal control. In addition, in contrast to chemically induced changes, the molecular response to a changing electric field occurs relatively quickly. If the system is properly designed, this response can then be used to control the magnitude of surface properties. In this work we discuss the effect of an external electric field on the adhesion and lubrication properties of several polyelectrolyte-coated surfaces. The influence of the applied field is investigated at different pH and salt conditions, as the polyelectrolyte conformation is sensitive to these variables. We show that it is possible to fine tune friction and adhesion using relatively low applied fields.

Proton Chemical Shifts

Correlations of cyclopropyl proton chemical shifts for 4-substituted (2,2-dichlorocyclopropyl)-benzenes with σI and σR0 provide evidence that these chemical shifts reflect direct field effects and weak phenyl–cyclopropyl conjugative interactions. Corrections for variable ring current effects due to substituent-induced changes in conformation improve the individual correlations but do not alter the basic pattern of results. Correlation of the β cyclopropyl 1H chemical shift difference with σI with calculated hydrogen electron densities, and with calculated electric field components provides further strong evidence for a field effect on 1H chemical shifts.
