Polymers Have "Intelligent" Surfaces: Polymer Surface Dynamics (original) (raw)

Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures, 1994

Abstract

The "intelligence" of synthetic macromolecules is currently a topic of great interest, popularity, and activity. The understanding of macromolecule mechanics and dynamics has reached the stage where unique and novel applications are being developed. Here I present basic principles of polymer surface science, bulk polymer dynamics, and some selected areas in polymer surface dynamics. I include a brief treatment of the complexity of highly dynamic, multi-domain, macromolecular surfaces and their interactions with highly dynamic, multi-domain "block copolymer" proteins which are important in biocompatibility and biotechnology.
