Park Webinar - Nanostructured Polymer Brushes with AFM

The Park Systems 2019 Material Science Research and AFM Webinar Series kicks off with Nanostructured Polymer Brushes With AFM, focusing on how Atomic Force Microscopy is a vital tool in characterizing the morphology of grafted polymer brushes. The 2019 Webinar Series will feature materials science and industry-leading expert Dr. Rigoberto Advincula, Professor, Department of Macromolecular Science and Engineering at Case Western Reserve University and Editor-in-Chief of MRS Communications, Materials Research Society. This month’s webinar has discussed how surface probe methods enable researchers to gain a better understanding of the effect of polymer density on the behavior – even stimuli-response behavior – of polymer brushes. We demonstrated the use of modified techniques to enhance surface probe measurements which can be built into the tip design or the experimental design.
