Extract

The properties of polymeric surfaces and interfaces are ubiquitous in their myriad commercial applications: paints and coatings, adhesives, lubrication, biocompatible materials, flocculation and steric stabilization of colloids, membranes and separation media, immiscible polymer blends, and filled composites. Some of these applications require low-energy surfaces that are chemically inert and are not easily wet with other materials. Other applications require high adhesion and strong interactions between the polymer and substrate. This article discusses fundamental principles governing the behavior of polymer surfaces and interfaces, then illustrates various means available for polymer-interface modification.
