Viscoelastic Properties of Polyelectrolyte Multilayers Swollen with Ionic Liquid Solutions

Polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEM) obtained by layer-by-layer assembly can be doped with ionic liquid (IL) via the swelling of the films with IL solutions. In order to examine the mechanical properties of IL-containing PEM, we implement a Kelvin-Voigt model to obtain thickness, viscosity and elastic...
