Project Description

Polymer brushes have potential applications in a large number of areas. The goal of my project is to prepare polymer brushes on silica surface by “grafting from” or “grafting to” techniques. I will employ AFM, QCM-D, and Ellipsometry to get the information regarding the properity of polymer brushes.
