Polymer behavior under the influence of interfacial interactions

The properties of polymers, thin films or bulk, are profoundly influenced by interactions at interfaces with dissimilar materials. Thin, supported, polymer films are subject to interfacial instabilities, due largely to competing intermolecular forces, that cause them to rupture and dewet the substr...
