Effects of Polymer-Grafted Natural Nanocrystal on Structure and Mechanical Properties of Poly(lactic acid): A Case of Cellulose Whisker-graft-Polycaprolactone
In this work, polysaccharide nanocrystals—rodlike cellulose whiskers (CWs)—were surface-grafted with polycaprolactone (PCL) via microwave-assisted ring-opening polymerization, and filaceous cellulose whisker-graft-polycaprolactone (CW-g-PCL) nanoparticles were produced. Moreover, the resultant nanoparticles were incorporated into poly(lactic acid) (PLA) as a matrix, an...

【Chemical Communications】Facile fabrication of microsphere-polymer brush hierarchically three-dimensional (3d) substrates for immunoassays
Abstract:
We propose a facile UV strategy to construct a hierarchically three-dimensional (3D) substrate that comprises a polystyrene (PS) microsphere layer on the cycloolefin polymer (COP) substrate and densely packed hydrophilic polymer brushes grafting from this 3D backbone. This hierarchical substrate gives a high antibody loading capacity and 3D manner of analyte capture, therefore enhan...

【Biomacromolecules】Hierarchical polymer brushes with dominant antibacterial mechanisms switching from bactericidal to bacteria repellent
Abstract:
Although polycationic surfaces have high antimicrobial efficacies, they suffer from high toxicity to mammalian cells and severe surface accumulation of dead bacteria. For the first time, we propose a surface-initiated photoiniferter-mediated polymerization (SI-PIMP) strategy of constructing a “cleaning” zwitterionic outer layer on a polycationic bactericidal background layer...

【ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces】Fabrication of a detection platform with boronic acid containing zwitterionic polymer brush
Abstract:
Development of technologies for biomedical detection platform is critical to meet the global challenges of various disease diagnoses, especially for point-of-use applications. Because of its natural simplicity, effectiveness, and easy repeatability, random covalent-binding technique is widely adopted in antibody immobilization. However, its antigen-binding capacity is relatively low...

【Applied Surface Science】Integrated antifouling and bactericidal polymer membranes throughbioinspired polydopamine/poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) coating
Abstract:
Polypropylene (PP) non-woven has been widely used as wound dressing; however, the hydrophobicnature of PP can initiate bacterial attachment and subsequent biofilm formation. Herein, we proposea facile approach to functionalize PP non-woven with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone)-iodine complex (PVP-I). PVP and PEG were successively tethered onto PP non-woven su...

【Mater Design】Effect of a dual compatibilizer on the formation of co-continuous morphology of immiscible polymer blends
This work aims at investigating the effect of a dual compatibilizer on the formation of co-continuous morphology of immiscible polymer blends. More specifically, the blend is composed of polystyrene (PS) and polyamide 6 (PA6), and the dual compatibilizer is composed of a low molecular weight styrene-co-maleic anhydride copolymer (Mw = 11 500 g/mol, maleic anhydride MAH content = 14 wt.%) denoted a...

【Langmuir】Controlled Evaporative Self-Assembly of Poly(acrylic acid) in a Confined Geometry for Fabricating Patterned Polymer Brushes
A simple yet robust approach was exploited to fabricate large-scaled patterned polymer brushes by combining
controlled evaporative self-assembly (CESA) in a confined geometry and self-initiated photografting and photopolymerization (SIPGP). Our method was carried out without any sophisticated instruments, free of lithography, overcoming current difficulties in fabricating polymer patterns by ...

【ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces】Janus Polymer/Carbon Nanotube Hybrid Membranes for Oil/Water Separation
A robust and simple method is provided to fabricate Janus polymer/carbon
nanotube (CNT) hybrid membranes for oil/water separation. Starting from CNT
membranes formed by dispensing, hydrophobic poly(styrene) (PS) and hydrophilic
poly(N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) were grated from different
sides of the photoactive CNT membranes via self-initiated photografting and
