Interfaces hydrogen bonding

Other explanations of the nature of the polymer to metal bond include mechanical adhesion due to microscopic physical interlocking of the two faces, chemical bonding due to acid/base reactions occuring at the interface, hydrogen bonding at the interface, and electrostatic forces built up between the metal face and the dielectric polymer. It is reasonable to assume that all of these kinds of interactions, to one degree or another, are needed to explain the failure of adhesion in the cathodic delamination process. 

Several different forces may be involved in protein adsorption at the solid-liquid interface hydrogen bonding, electrostatic forces, and hydrophobic interactions. Entropic factors such as loss of water, structural deformation of the protein onto hydrophobic patches and dehydration of the protein may drive the adsorption process when there are non favourable electrostatic interactions.

A different behaviour has been found with 18C6 as solute A simulation starting with the (18C6) q decamer right at the interface leads, after 1 ns, to a complex situation (Figure 6). Most of the crowns remain at the interface, hydrogen bonded to water molecules. Others... 

In order to include other interactions such as dipolar or hydrogen bonding, many semiempirical approaches have been tried [196, 197, 200], including adding terms to Eq. X-45 [198, 201] or modifying the definition of [202, 199]. Perhaps the most well-known of these approaches comes from Fowkes [203, 204] suggestion that the interactions across a water-hydrocarbon interface are dominated by dispersion forces such that Eq. X-45 could be modified as... 

There is a fair amount of work reported with films at the mercury-air interface. Rice and co-workers [107] used grazing incidence x-ray diffraction to determine that a crystalline stearic acid monolayer induces order in the Hg substrate. Quinone derivatives spread at the mercury-n-hexane interface form crystalline structures governed primarily by hydrogen bonding interactions [108].

This image reveals the hydrogen-bonding alcohol molecules assembled in lamellar fashion at the liquid-solid interface.

The unexpected preference for the interfacial region at lower concentrations of benzene has prompted speculation. It has been demonstrated that aromatic compounds are capable of forming weak hydrogen bonds with water. This ability favours uptake in the aqueous interface over solubilisation in the interior. Alternatively, some authors have attributed the binding behaviour of benzene to its... 

The well-known DLVO theory of coUoid stabiUty (10) attributes the state of flocculation to the balance between the van der Waals attractive forces and the repulsive electric double-layer forces at the Hquid—soHd interface. The potential at the double layer, called the zeta potential, is measured indirectly by electrophoretic mobiUty or streaming potential. The bridging flocculation by which polymer molecules are adsorbed on more than one particle results from charge effects, van der Waals forces, or hydrogen bonding (see Colloids). 

She et al. [128] used rolling contact to estimate the adhesion hysteresis at polymer/oxide interfaces. By plasma oxidation of the cylinders of crosslinked PDMS, silica-like surfaces were generated which could hydrogen bond to PDMS r olecules. In contrast to unmodified surfaces, the adhesion hysteresis was shown to be larger and proportional to the molecular weight of grafted polymer on the substrate. The observed hysteresis was interpreted in terms of the orientation and relaxation of polymer chains known as Lake-Thomas effect. 

The surface preparation must enable and promote the formation of bonds across the adherend/primer-adhesive interface. These bonds may be chemical (covalent, acid-base, van der Waals, hydrogen, etc.), physical (mechanical interlocking), diffusional (not likely with adhesive bonding to metals), or some combination of these (Chapters 7-9). 

The simulated free surface of liquid water is relatively stable for several nanoseconds [68-72] because of the strong hydrogen bonds formed by liquid water. The density decrease near the interface is smooth it is possible to describe it by a hyperbolic tangent function [70]. The width of the interface, measured by the distance between the positions where the density equals 90% and 10% of the bulk density, is about 5 A at room temperature [70,71]. The left side of Fig. 3 shows a typical density profile of the free interface for the TIP4P water model [73].
