The adsorption of Zonyl FSN-100 (FSN100, having an average 14 oxyethylene units and 6–
CF 2 groups) and Zonyl FSO-100 (FSO100, having an average 10 oxyethylene units and 5 …

Abstract Infrared (IR)-visible (Vis) sum frequency generation (SFG) is a second-order
nonlinear optical process which is forbidden in centrosymmetric bulk media or isotropic …

The adhesion of surfactant molecules on the microplastics surface is affected by the surface
structure of the microplastics. Little is known about the mobility of different microplastics in …

The measurements of water, formamide and diiodomethane contact angle (θ) on
polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyethylene (PE), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), nylon …

The local conformation of poly (methyl methacrylate)(PMMA) chains at the nitrogen (N2) and
water interfaces was studied by infrared-visible sum-frequency generation (SFG) …

Phthalates, the most widely used plasticizers in poly (vinyl chloride)(PVC), have been
extensively studied. In this paper, a highly sensitive, easy, and effective method was …

Sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy has been applied to investigate
the molecular structure of the buried poly (methyl methacrylate)(PMMA)/silver (Ag) interface …

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to investigate the effect of relative humidity (RH)
on the adhesion forces between silicon nitride AFM probes, hydrophilic stainless steel, and …

Water-based polymer coatings usually exhibit poor adhesion performance compared to their
solvent-based counterparts. Unveiling the difference in interface structures between water …
