Book ChapterDOI
Tethered chains in polymer microstructures
TL;DR: This review brings out the common features of seemingly widely disparate microstructures containing tethered chains, which can be reversible or irreversible and is frequently sufficiently dense that the chains are crowded.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of surface science in bioengineered materials
TL;DR: A carefully selected combination of this set of characteristics will enable us to bioengineer surfaces that are capable to direct and control a desired biological response.
Journal ArticleDOI
The healing process at polymer–polymer interfaces
Stephen Prager,Matthew Tirrell +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of the welding process based on the reptation picture of polymer dynamics due to de Gennes was presented. But the analysis was restricted to the case when two pieces of the same amorphous polymer are brought into contact at a temperature above the glass transition, the junction surface gradually heals until, at very long contact times, it is indistinguishable from bulk polymer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular dynamics of narrow, liquid‐filled pores
TL;DR: In this paper, the pore walls are modeled as flat surfaces interacting with the fluid molecules via a continuous potential varying only with perpendicular distance from the wall, and density profiles, solvation forces, interfacial tensions, and self-diffusion coefficients along pore axis were computed.
