Wetting and transport on swellable, immobilized polymer brushes and polymer networks (A05)

A05旨在理解可溶胀聚合物表面上润湿和传输之间的关系。静态聚合物系统的工作扩展到动态可切换的聚合物。在准静态条件下分析了土壤的动态润湿和输运过程。在“旋转毛细管”中，毛细管强制的渐进润湿可以通过离心力停止，以便研究前体膜的纯溶胀行为或进展。这使得宏观流动效应与润湿效应分离。

A05 aims at the understanding of the relationship between wetting and transport on swellable polymer surfaces. The work with static polymer systems is extended to dynamically switchable polymers. The dynamic wetting and transport processes are analyzed under quasi-stationary conditions. In a "rotating capillary", the capillary-forced, progressive wetting can be stopped by a centrifugal force in order to study the pure swelling behavior or the progression of the precursor film. This enables the separation of macroscopic flow effects from wetting effects.
