Energy disperse spectroscopy (EDS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) confirmed that PMMA brushes were successfully prepared on the silicon wafers, and the surface became more hydrophobic according to the contact angle of 69~. It is found that CuCI/1, 1, 4, 7, 10, 10-hexamethyl triethylenetetramine (HMTETA) system is more suitable than CuBr/N, N, N′, N″, N′″-pentamethyl diethylenetriamine (PMDETA) system to control the free radical polymerization of MMA in solution. Nevertheless, better control on the thickness of PMMA brushes was achieved in CuBr/PMDETA than in CuC1/HMTETA due to higher activity and better reversibility of the former system.展开更多

The polymerization kinetics of the PHPEGMA was studied by gel permeation chromatography and 1H NMR. The semilogarithmic plot of monomer conversion vs. reaction time increases linearly before the conversion is up to more than 70% and the number-average molecular weights(M_n) by GPC increased linearly with increase of the monomer conversion up to 100%, while the polydispersity index remained fairly narrow with M_w/M_n<1.2.展开更多
