CHARACTERIZATION OF POLYMER SURFACES WITH ATOMIC FORCE MICROSCOPY
Abstract
▪ Abstract Applications of state-of-the-art atomic force microscopy methods to the elucidation of the surface and near-surface structure of polymeric solids are described. Contact, tapping, force modulation, frictional force, and other modes of atomic force microscopy are described, and recent results are summarized. Conformational and chain order, crystalline order, polymer crystals, lamellar structures, lamellar surfaces, fold surfaces, and fibers and films with highly oriented molecules all yield important information. Controlled deformation of polymer surfaces, both reversible and irreversible, with the atomic force microscope, provides a wealth of information about mechanical properties on a nanometer scale. The observation of phase-separated regions and of polymer crystals lying below a smooth surface shows that not only topography but also elastic inhomogeneity can be observed in great detail with the atomic force microscope. This is a rapidly developing field, and some indications of future developments are presented.

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.
