Transport polymerization for materials synthesis

Ultrathin (10 nm ∼ 1 μm) poly(ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate) (PECA) films were prepared on flat surfaces via vapor deposition without experiencing the liquid phase. System pressure, monomer temperature, as well as surface initiators were studied in the process of controlling the thickness and roughness of p...
