Methacrylate Copolymer

Copolymer emulsions containing fluorine were prepared by emulsion polymerization with MMA, BA and G06B using SDBS as emulsifier. The copolymer was characterized by FTIR and DSC. The size and distribution of the latex particle in emulsion were obtained by particle size analyzer. The stability of emulsion was observed and the solvent resistance of latex films was investigated. Surface properties of the copolymer film were investigated by contact angle measurement. The results showed that adding fluorine group to copolymer could increase hydrophobic property of the latex film and decrease the surface free energy of copolymer film. Glass fiber will have excellent properties when combining with the copolymer emulsion.

Photochemical Modification

Photochemical modification of the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) with incorporation of the CH3 radical released from the B(CH3)3 molecule excited by an ArF excimer laser has been demonstrated. The incorporation of CH3 radicals and the depletion of fluorine atoms of the polymer surface were studied by XPS analysis and infrared ATR spectrum measurement. In these photochemical reactions, the photoirradiated surface changed into oleophilic. The properties were studied by contact angle measurement. The stability of the oleophilic surface was examined at the elevated temperature of 200 °C for 6 h in O2 or N2 ambient and also by immersing in alkaline or acid water solutions.

Factors Associated

Hydrophobic modification of cellulose fibres was conducted by plasma-induced polymer grafting in an attempt to increase the hydrophobicity of paper. Two hydrophobic monomers, i.e., butyl acrylate (BA) and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (2-EHA) were grafted on cellulose fibres, induced by atmospheric cold plasma. Various influencing factors associated with the plasma-induced grafting were investigated, including the contact time and reaction temperature with monomers, and the dosage of monomers. Contact-angle measurement, infrared spectrum (IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used to ascertain the occurrence of the grafting. The results showed that the hydrophobic property of the modified paper sheet was improved significantly after the plasma-induced grafting. The water contact angle on the surface of the paper reached up to higher than125°.

Polymerization Method

The soap-free emulsion of vinyl acetate (VAc)/butyl acrylate (BA) copolymer was prepared by a semi-continuous and pre-emulsification polymerization method, using ammonium sulfate allyloxy nonylphenoxy poly(ethyleneoxy) (10) ether (DNS-86) as a reactive emulsifier. The effects of DNS-86 on the stability of the emulsion and the properties of the latex film were investigated. The infrared spectrum, thermal stability, glass transition temperature and micromorphology of latex were also studied. The results showed that the emulsion had the best stability and the conversion rate reached a maximum of 98.46% when the DNS-86 amount was 4 wt % of the total amount of monomers. Compared with the PVAc latex synthesized with octylphenol polyoxyethylene ether (10) (OP-10), the latex prepared with DNS-86 has higher thermal stability and ionic stability, whereas the latex film has better water resistance.

Microscopy Images

ZnO films with well-aligned hierarchical structures have been successfully synthesized at moderate temperatures using a simple catalyst-free hydrothermal process. The synthesized ZnO films are found to be single-phase, with a hexagonal wurtzite-type structure. Scanning electron microscopy images show that the well-aligned hierarchical structures are assembled with interlaced parallel sheets grown on the (400) silica surface. The water contact angle measurement indicates that the water on the films has a contact angle of about 156.3°. This clearly demonstrates that the ZnO films synthesized by this simple method have superhydrophobic properties and may be important for applications in self-cleaning surfaces, biology, and so on.

Surface Modified

A new surface modification method by modifying low molecular weight ploy (L-lactide) (LMW PLLA) onto the β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) superfine particles has been developed. The surface-modified β-TCP is characterized by FT-IR, XRD, digital microscope and contact angle measurement, et al. FT-IR spectra confirmed that LMW PLLA was connected onto the β-TCP surface through ionic interaction. XRD results indicated that the LMW PLLA did not affect the crystalline form of β-TCP, but the XRD patterns of the p-β-TCP showed a little difference with β-TCP. The p-β-TCP particles could be dispersed uniformly in dichloromethane. In contrast, unmodified β-TCP particles are apt to agglomerate after dispersed into dichloromethane. Wet angle measurement showed that hydrolyzed LMW PLLA significantly improves hydrophobicity of modified β-TCP particles. For the preparation of composites, PLLA was mixed with β-TCP and p-β-TCP, respectively, in a ratio of 85/15 (w/w) and moulded into tensile test specimens. Tensile tests showed that mechanical properties were improved, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) exhibited that modified β-TCP is an effective approach to prepare a homogeneous composites, moreover, it indicated a better interfacial phase interaction in the composite with the p-β-TCP. Chemical bonds between filler and PLLA matrix are assumed to be formed by ionic interaction.

Lipid bilayers form nanopores on the application of an electric field. This process of electroporation can be utilized in different applications ranging from targeted drug delivery in cells to nano-gating membrane for engineering applications. However, the ease of electroporation is dependent on the surface energy of the lipid layers and thus directly related to the packing structure of the lipid molecules. 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) lipid monolayers were deposited on a mica substrate using the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique at different packing densities and analyzed using atomic force microscopy (AFM). The wetting behavior of these monolayers was investigated by contact angle measurement and molecular dynamics simulations. It was found that an equilibrium packing density of liquid-condensed (LC) phase DPPC likely exists and that water molecules can penetrate the monolayer displacing the lipid molecules. The surface tension of the monolayer in air and water was obtained along with its breakthrough force.

The Stability

Industrial waste fly ash and ordinary Portland cement (PO42.5) were used as the main raw materials, Ca(OH)2 as the alkali activator, modified rosin soap as the foaming agent, and glass fiber as the reinforcing agent. A physical foaming technology was chosen to fabricate a fly ash and cement-based foam composite. The effects of water-to-binder (W/B) ratio and glass fiber addition on the performance of the foam composite were studied. The structure formation and reinforcement mechanism of the foam composite were discussed, and the optimal formulation was determined, which provides a new technical approach to utilize fly ash and improve the strength and reliability of foam cement products. The results show that different water-to-binder ratios directly affect the stability of the pores during the foaming process, and the glass fiber has a protective effect on the foam. When the W/B ratio is 0.5, meanwhile the addition of glass fiber is 1.5%, the fly ash and cement-based foam composite can achieve better physical performance: the dry density is 368 kg/m3, the water absorption rate is 39.12%, and the 28-day compressive strength is increased by 86.31% (reaching 3.47 MPa) compared to that of the sample without a glass fiber.
