Zwitterionic Polymers: Tuning of Smart Multifunctional Polymer Coatings Made by Zwitterionic Phosphorylcholines (Adv. Mater. Interfaces 1/2020)
Source abstract
Abstract
How is it possible to remove oily impurities from surfaces with pure water without the use of surfactants? In article number 1901422 by Alexander Münch, Petra Uhlmann, and co-workers, a new functional coating is achieved by preparing thin films of ultra-hydrophilic and swellable co-polymers. Due to the formation a highly swollen polymer film in contact with water, the oil droplets cannot interact with the surface anymore and float away.
