Polymer Brush Films with Varied Grafting and Cross-Linking Density via SI-ATRP Analysis of the Mechanical Properties by AFM

In her research, Inga Lilge focuses on a systematic study of poly(acrylamide) (PAAm) brushes prepared by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP). In addition to the analysis of the time dependence of the polymer brush growth, the conformation of the polymer brushes is varied...
