Structural and Photophysical Templating of Conjugated Polyelectrolytes with Single-Stranded DNA

Ursula Röthlisberger, Natalie Renuka Banerji, Polydefkis Diamantis

A promising approach to influence and control the photophysical properties of conjugated polymers is directing their molecular conformation by templating. We explore here the templating effect of single-stranded DNA oligomers (ssDNAs) on cationic polythiop ...

Functional and Responsive Polymers via Controlled Radical Polymerization

Jian Wang

This Thesis is built around 4 topics, which share in common that they all take advantage of the assets of controlled radical polymerization to either (i) prepare well-defined model systems to address fundamental research questions with regard to the sensit ...

Increased electromechanical sensitivity of polysiloxane elastomers by chemical modification with thioacetic groups

Yee Song Ko

Chemically cross-linked polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) elastomers have gained importance as a dielectric in elastic capacitor actuators, which elongate when electrically charged. Common PDMS elastomers have a dielectric permittivity of only about 3 and thus e ...

Composition containing a polymer and an additive

John Christopher Plummer, Holger Frauenrath, Daniel Görl

The invention describes a composition containing a) a functionalized polymer (10) that comprises at least one polymer segment (13) and at least two polymer aggregating segments (11,12) capable of forming non-covalent bonds based on a supramolecular interac ...

Synthesis of solvent-free processable and on-demand cross-linkable dielectric elastomers for actuators

Frank Nüesch

Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) have gained growing interest during the last decade from both the scientific community and industry. However, the high operating voltages needed to drive these actuators reduce their application potential. To date, sev ...

Synthesis of Loop Poly(Methyl Methacrylate) Brushes via Chain-End Postpolymerization Modification

Harm-Anton Klok, Piotr Mocny

Polymer brushes are typically densely grafted assemblies of polymer chains that are tethered via one end group to a solid substrate. Anchoring linear polymer chains via both end groups to a surface results in loop-type polymer brushes. Although loop polyme ...

Electrochemically polymerized poly (3, 4-phenylenedioxythiophene) as efficient and transparent counter electrode for dye sensitized solar cells

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Nikolaos Vlachopoulos, Lin Yang

A new conducting polymer poly (3, 4-phenylenedioxythiophene) is synthesized by the electrochemical polymerization technique with different solvents. We find that solvents used in electrochemical polymerization play important roles for the catalytic activit ...

Swelling-Induced Chain Stretching Enhances Hydrolytic Degrafting of Hydrophobic Polymer Brushes in Organic Media

Jian Wang, Harm-Anton Klok

Hydrophilic polymer brushes grown via surface‐initiated polymerization from silicon oxide surfaces can detach or degraft in aqueous media. Degrafting of these chain end‐tethered polymers is believed to involve hydrolysis of bonds at the polymer–substrate i ...

Slickwater hydraulic fracture propagation: near-tip and radial geometry solutions

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Haseeb Zia

We quantify the importance of turbulent flow on the propagation of hydraulic fractures (HF) accounting for the addition of friction reducing agents to the fracturing fluid (slickwater fluid). The addition in small quantities of a high molecular weight poly ...

Cellular Uptake and Intracellular Trafficking of Poly(N-(2-Hydroxypropyl) Methacrylamide)

Anders Meibom, Harm-Anton Klok, Graham Knott, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Olivier Burri, Arne Seitz, Romain Guiet, Claudia Battistella

Cellular uptake and intracellular trafficking of polymer conjugates or polymer nanoparticles is typically monitored using fluorescence-based techniques such as confocal microscopy. While these methods have provided a wealth of insight into the internalizat ...
