Neutron reflectivity of an adsorbed water-soluble block copolymer: A surface transition to micelle-like aggregates at the air/water interface

Abstract:

We describe neutron reflectivity measurements on layers of poly(2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate-block-methyl methacrylate) copolymer (poly(DMAEMA-b-MMA)) (70 mol % DMAEMA, Mn = 10k) adsorbed at the air/water interface. Measurements of the partially deuterated copolymer on null reflecting water give the adsorption isotherm and show that there is a surface phase transition from a layer about 20 Å thick to one about 40 Å thick. The concentration of polymer at which the phase transition occur...
