Study of the Interactions of Zwitterions and Carbon Nanotubes by Nonlinear Rheology in an Aqueous Environment
Aqueous nanocomposite solutions of P(NIPAM) and P(NIPAM- co- N-(3-Sulfopropyl)- N-(methacryloxyethyl)- N,N-dimethylammonium betaine), a zwitterionic monomer with carbon nanotubes (CNT) as filler, were synthesized and characterized rheologically. While the influence of P(NIPAM) content and CNT conten...

| Zusammenfassung: | Aqueous nanocomposite solutions of P(NIPAM) and P(NIPAM- co- N-(3-Sulfopropyl)- N-(methacryloxyethyl)- N,N-dimethylammonium betaine), a zwitterionic monomer with carbon nanotubes (CNT) as filler, were synthesized and characterized rheologically. While the influence of P(NIPAM) content and CNT content can be considered to be relatively minor, the introduction of a zwitterionic monomer (Zw) into the polymer leads to clear rheological traces of strong interactions between zwitterionic moieties and surface moieties on the CNTs, namely, a significantly lower nonlinearity limit and a lower modulus at high Zw contents and a higher modulus at intermediate contents due to adsorption of zwitterionic moieties on the CNT surface as well as a significantly lengthened time for the sample to adjust itself to the applied deformation, suggesting that the adsorbed polymer chains need to reorganize themselves significantly to accommodate to the applied strain γ0 |
