Using the wet chemistry method, the surface of poly(aryl ether ether ketone) (PEEK) Γlm was selectively modiΓed to produce PEEK-OH, PEEK-COOH, PEEK-glutamine, and samples displaying, PEEK-NH 2 PEEK-SO 3 H respectively, hydroxyl, carboxyl, amino acid, amine and sulphonyl functions. All the samples we

β¦ Synopsis
Coupons of polished aluminium, glass and polystyrene were exposed to radiofrequency (r.f.) plasmas containing helium, nitrogen and oxygen. Angle-resolved XPS measurements of the treated surfaces were made immediately, after a few days and after about 9 months. The data were interpreted in terms of a simpliΓed substrate-overlayer model with allowance for fractional coverage. The results are consistent with surface cleaning followed by hydrocarbon re-contamination for aluminium and glass, and with the di β usion of adatoms towards the bulk in the case of polystyrene.

Time resolved small angle X-ray scattering is used to probe the microstructural changes occurring in a sample of poly(hydroxybutyrate), aged at room temperature, during a heating cycle designed to reverse any physical ageing. Evidence for the reversal of physical ageing is seen, but is unlikely to a
