研究领域

We are interested in studying the mechanism and kinetics associated with initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD) of functional polymers onto structured materials and liquid surfaces. The iCVD process eliminates the need for organic solvents and thereby offers a safer and cleaner alternative to liquid phase polymer processing. Deposition onto Liquid Substrates We have recently demonstrated that we can deposit polymers onto liquids with low vapor pressures, including ionic liquids (ILs) and silicone oils. The liquid surface is mobile and unconstrained and thereby offers new initial conditions for growth and additional degrees of freedom which can be exploited to produce films and particles with desirable physical properties. We have found that the surface tension interaction between the polymer and the liquid plays a key role in determining the polymer morphology at the liquid-vapor interface. In addition, we have observed that the introduction of liquid substrates adds complexity because polymerization can now occur at both the liquid-vapor interface as well as within the liquid for cases in which the monomer is soluble within the liquid. We have demonstrated that we can form new polymeric structures such as ultra-thin polymer films, sub-micron particles, liquid/polymer composites, and core-shell particles by tuning solubility and surface tension interactions
