Modification of Gold Surfaces with Water-Soluble (Co)polymers Prepared via Aqueous Reversible Addition−Fragmentation Chain Transfer (RAFT) Polymerization
Abstract
Reversible addition−fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) is a versatile, controlled free radical polymerization technique that operates via a degenerative transfer mechanism in which a thiocarbonylthio compound acts as a chain transfer agent. The subsequent reduction of the dithioester end groups to thiols allows the preparation of (co)polymer-modified gold surfaces. Herein we report the immobilization of poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate), poly(( ar -vinylbenzyl) trimethylammonium chloride), poly( N, N -dimethylacrylamide), and poly(3-[2-( N -methylacrylamido)-ethyldimethyl ammonio]propane sulfonate- b - N, N -dimethylacrylamide) onto gold films. The presence of the immobilized (co)polymers was confirmed by atomic force microscopy, attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and surface contact angle measurements. The gold film modified with the block copolymer demonstrated stimuli-responsive behavior as evidenced by its water contact angle being similar to that of poly( N, N -dimethylacrylamide) even though the block based on 3-[2-( N -methylacrylamido)-ethyldimethyl ammonio] propane sulfonate was expected to be exposed to the aqueous environment.

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.
