Metal polymer-nucleated

Surface modification of a polymer prior to metallization is widely used to improve adhesion. The most common surface modifications employed are electric discharge (corona and plasma) and, more recently, ion-beam treatments QJ- Several mechanisms have been proposed for the improved adhesion after such surface modifications (2). These include mechanical interlocking, the elimination of weak boundary layers, electrostatic attractions, and chemical bonding. All of these can play a role in adhesion depending on the surface modification used, metal/polymer system, type of metal deposition, and the extent of polymer preparation employed. However, for low power, short exposure modifications, the formation of new chemical species which can provide nucleation and chemical bonding sites for subsequent overlayers is considered to be of prime importance (3-51. [Pg.433]

A phosphoric ester metal salt nucleating agent which is easily dispersible in a crystalline polymer and effective in improving transparency and mechanical strength of the crystalline polymer is used in wire coating material. ... [Pg.126]

Significantly, the N-(3-aminopropyl)pyrrole-modified surface displays more rapid polymer nucleation than that observed at the bare isotropic noble metal conductor, Au. Furthermore, the poorly conductive c-axis surface of YBa2Cu307 s fosters more sluggish growth than the more conductive cr-axis orientation. [Pg.1039]

In bulk-crystallized polymers, lamellae are often organized into spheruHtes, spherical stmctures which grow outward from a point of nucleation, typically to about 0.01 mm in diameter. SpheruHtes are in some ways similar to the grain stmcture in metals. They can make a polymer brittle and also reduce transparency. [Pg.432]

This closeness of 0 to zero explains the existence of a gas-oversaturated solution area in the polymer melt, when P < Pg, but the entire volume of gas remains in the solution. The degree of oversaturation, particularly upon free foaming (not in flow) can be 2- to 3-fold. In real polymer compositions, there are always solid admixtures, which have poor wetting areas. This reduces the degree of oversaturation at the interface melt-molding tool. Moreover, bubble nuclei can result from fragmentation of gas bubbles in the polymer [16]. Another factor that promotes the formation of bubble nuclei is the presence of localized hot points in the polymer melt they act as nuc-leation centres. Hot points appear either after a chemical reaction in the melt polymer [17], or in overheated areas on the surface of metal equipment [18]. Density of nucleation can be improved via introduction of various agents that reduce tension of the polymer [19]. [Pg.103]

After polarization to more anodic potentials than E the subsequent polymeric oxidation is not yet controlled by the conformational relaxa-tion-nucleation, and a uniform and flat oxidation front, under diffusion control, advances from the polymer/solution interface to the polymer/metal interface by polarization at potentials more anodic than o-A polarization to any more cathodic potential than Es promotes a closing and compaction of the polymeric structure in such a magnitude that extra energy is now required to open the structure (AHe is the energy needed to relax 1 mol of segments), before the oxidation can be completed by penetration of counter-ions from the solution the electrochemical reaction starts under conformational relaxation control. So AHC is the energy required to compact 1 mol of the polymeric structure by cathodic polarization. Taking... [Pg.379]

Although the mechanisms discussed above are still topics of debate, it is now firmly established that the electrodeposition of conducting polymers proceeds via some kind of nucleation and phase-growth mechanism, akin to the electrodeposition of metals.56,72-74 Both cyclic voltammetry and potential step techniques have been widely used to investigate these processes, and the electrochemical observations have been supported by various types of spectroscopy62,75-78 and microscopy.78-80... [Pg.557]

Such effects are observed inter alia when a metal is electrochemically deposited on a foreign substrate (e.g. Pb on graphite), a process which requires an additional nucleation overpotential. Thus, in cyclic voltammetry metal is deposited during the reverse scan on an identical metallic surface at thermodynamically favourable potentials, i.e. at positive values relative to the nucleation overpotential. This generates the typical trace-crossing in the current-voltage curve. Hence, Pletcher et al. also view the trace-crossing as proof of the start of the nucleation process of the polymer film, especially as it appears only in experiments with freshly polished electrodes. But this is about as far as we can go with cyclic voltammetry alone. It must be complemented by other techniques the potential step methods and optical spectroscopy have proved suitable. [Pg.14]

As discussed earlier the whole process is a redox reaction. Selenium is reduced using sodium borohydride to give selenide ions. In the above reaction, the metal ion reacts with the polymer (PVP or PVA) solution to form the polymer-metal ion solution. Addition of the selenide ion solution to the polymer-metal ion solutions resulted in instantaneous change in the colour of the solutions from colourless to orange (PVA) and orange red (PVP). This indicates the formation of CdSe nanoparticles. The addition of the selenide solution to the polymer - metal ion solution resulted in gradual release of selenide ion (Se -) upon hydrolytic decomposition in alkaline media (equation 4). The released selenide ions then react with metal ion to form seed particles (nucleation). [Pg.174]
