TL;DR: A precision-structured diblock copolymer brush coating shows unprecedented, above 99.99%, in vitro biofilm inhibition of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, 100-fold better than previous coatings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface modification of aluminum foil and PTFE film by graft polymerization for adhesion enhancement
TL;DR: In this paper, surface graft copolymerization of GMA was used to improve the adhesion of aluminum foils to poly(tetrafluoroethylene) films.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhancing bioactivity of chitosan film for osteogenesis and wound healing by covalent immobilization of BMP-2 or FGF-2
TL;DR: The higher retention rate of the covalently immobilized growth factors enabled their stimulatory effects to persist for a longer period than when adsorbed growth factors were used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electroless Plating of Copper and Nickel via a Sn-Free Process on Polyimide Films Modified by Surface Graft Copolymerization with 1-Vinylimidazole
TL;DR: In this paper, a one-step, tin-free activation process was carried out on polyimide (PI, Kapton® HN) films modified by UV-induced surface graft copolymerization with 1-vinylimidazole (VIDz).
Journal ArticleDOI
Protonation and deprotonation behaviour of amine units in polyaniline
TL;DR: In this paper, the deprotonation properties of polyaniline amine units were examined by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and it was found that the protonated amine unit undergo deprotion in aqueous media more readily than the Protonated imine units and both types of structures are stable when heated to 150°C in air.
