【 摘 要 】
Using surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), novel tunable wettability polymer (ionic liquid) brushes poly[2-(1-butylimidazolium-3-yl)ethyl methacrylate hexafluorophosphate] (PBIMH-PF6-) from a rough substrate modified with an initiator layer composed of 2-bromoisobutyryl bromide was prepared. Various characterization techniques including ellipsometry, static water contact angle measurements, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and atomic force microscope (AFM) were used to characterize the films for each surface modification step. Kinetic studies revealed a linear increase in polymer film thickness with reaction time, indicating that chain growth from the surface was a controlled process with a "living" characteristic. Wetting measurements indicated that ion exchanging interactions can be used to switch surface characteristics from hydrophilicity to hydrophobicity in a reversible manner. Compared with the smooth surface of the flat substrate modified with the same polymer (ionic liquid) brushes, the rough substrate by chemical etching exhibited better hydrophobicity.
