Beschreibung
For the development of brush-based functional surface-coatings, it is critical to understand their properties, because they will determine their performance and user-experience. Polymer brush solvation and wetting are key parameters in this. In this presentation we will show that brushes can display counter-intuitive wetting properties. We aim to unravel those by combining molecular dynamics simulations, contact angle goniometry and ellipsometry laboratory experiments.
