Abstract

The paper presents a study on how the properties of polymer brushes can be modified by the addition of functional groups which have a strong affinity for each other to the free end of the polymer chains. Monte Carlo simulations are performed on several polymer brush systems. Results how that the attraction between stickers leads to the formation of lateral structures within the layer. The properties of this layer can be controlled by varying the chain length, number of stickers and the grafting density.
