Adsorption of poly(dimethylsiloxane) from supercritical carbon dioxide

The objective of this research is to understand the relationship between polymers in bulk solution and at a surface. In particular, we are interested in studying, in situ, the adsorption of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) from supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) onto a gold (Au) surface using Surfac...
