Shear and Frictional Interactions between Adsorbed Polymer Layers in a Good Solvent
Abstract
The forces between layers of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), of molecular weights M = 37 × 10 3 (PEO37) and M = 112 × 10 3 (PEO112) adsorbed onto smooth, curved solid (mica) surfaces across the good solvent toluene have been determined using a surface force balance (SFB). The SFB used is capable of measuring both normal interactions F n ( D ) as a function of surface separation D and, with extreme sensitivity, shear or frictional forces F s ( D, v s ) between them as they slide past each other at velocity v s . The F n ( D ) profiles are closely similar to those measured in earlier studies between adsorbed PEO layers. The shear or frictional forces between the sliding PEO-bearing surfaces are very low up to moderate compressions of the adsorbed layers (local pressures up to ca. 10 5 N m -2 ), corresponding to effective friction coefficients μ eff = ( F s / F n ) of order 0.003 or less. This is attributed to the fluid interfacial layer between the adsorbed layers resulting from their weak mutual interpenetration. At higher loads F s increases markedly, and two forms of behavior are found depending on the PEO molecular weight. For PEO37, a sharp increase in F s is followed by removal of polymer from within the intersurface gap during sliding, high friction, and adhesion between the surfaces. For the longer PEO112, the initial increase in F s and in μ eff saturates at the highest loads (for the case of μ eff even decreasing), indicating that the slip plane has moved from the polymer/polymer midplane to the polymer/solid interface. The dependence of F s on the sliding velocity in the high-friction regime is weak, suggesting that at low compressions there is a thinning of the mutual adsorbed-layer-interpenetration region at high v s that offsets the higher viscous dissipation in that region. At the highest loads, when the slip plane has shifted to the mica surface, the weak F s ( v s ) dependence is characteristic of sliding friction at solid substrates.

Bridging occurs when a chain from one adsorbed layer adsorbs to the opposing surface; sliding drags bridging chains, leading to energy dissipation and higher friction.
“Such bridging occurs when a chain from one adsorbed layer adsorbs also to the opposing surface: When the surfaces slide past each other, the bridging chains are dragged past the surfaces onto which they are adsorbed, leading to energy dissipation and thus to higher friction [30, 77, 78].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
