View page
US Patent:
7679078, Mar 16, 2010

Appl. No.:
11/078965
Inventors:
Robert R. Schumaker - San Jose CA, US
James Parakka - San Bruno CA, US
Assignee:
California Molecular Electronics Corporation - Huntsville AL
International Classification:
H01L 29/08
C07D 339/02
US Classification:
257 40, 549 89, 549510

Control Of Polymer Surface Molecular Architecture Via Amphipathic Endgroups

View page
US Patent:
7884171, Feb 8, 2011
Filed:
Dec 15, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/638371
Inventors:
Robert S. Ward - Lafayette CA, US
Keith R. McCrea - Concord CA, US
Yuan Tian - Alameda CA, US
James P. Parakka - San Bruno CA, US
Assignee:
DSM IP Assets B.V. - Heerlen
International Classification:
C08G 18/00
C08G 77/04
C08G 77/22
US Classification:
528 44, 528 10, 528 25, 528 28, 528 34, 525453, 525459, 525460
Abstract:
Polymers whose surfaces are modified by endgroups that include amphipathic surface-modifying moieties. An amphipathic endgroup of a polymer molecule is an endgroup that contains at least two moieties of significantly differing composition, such that the amphipathic endgroup spontaneously rearranges its positioning in a polymer body to position the moiety on the surface of the body, depending upon the composition of the medium with which the body is in contact, when that re-positioning causes a reduction in interfacial energy. An example of an amphipathic surface-modifying endgroup is one that has both a hydrophobic moiety and a hydrophilic moiety in a single endgroup. For instance, a hydrophilic poly(ethylene oxide) terminated with a hydrophilic hydroxyl group is not surface active in air when the surface-modifying endgroup is bonded to a more hydrophobic base polymer. If the hydroxyl group on the oligomeric poly(ethylene oxide) is replaced by a hydrophobic methoxy ether terminus, the poly(ethylene oxide) becomes surface active in air, and allows the poly(ethylene oxide) groups to crystallize in the air-facing surface. In this example, immersion in water destroys the crystallinity as the poly(ethylene oxide) sorbs water and the hydrophobic methoxy group retreats below the surface of the polymer.
