Exchange counterion in polycationic hydrogels: Tunability of hydrophobicity, water state, and floating capability for a floating ph device
( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)Smart gel materials are capable of controlling and switching swelling, water state, and wettability properties triggered by external stimuli. In this study, we fabricated a series of polyelectrolyte hydrogels bearing a ... -
Modulation of wettability, gradient and adhesion on self-assembled monolayer by counterion exchange and pH
( Academic Press Inc. , 2018 , Article)In this study, two quaternary ammonium salts derived from L-lipoic acid were applied for self-assembled monolayers formation on rough structured gold surface. The derivatives differ in functionality since one possesses ...
