Evaluating the impact of surface chemistry on adhesion of polymeric systems underwater by means of contact mechanics

Doctor of Philosophy === Department of Mechanical and Nuclear Engineering === Kevin B. Lease === The overall goal of this study was to assess the effects of surface chemistry on adhesion of polymeric systems underwater. The adhesion is quantified by the thermodynamic work of adhesion (W) when two su...
