摘要
The alkali-activation of titanium (Ti) surfaces performed in a heated sodium hydroxide (NaOH) aqueous solution, results in a porous layer rich in hydroxyl (OH) groups, the structure and porosity of which strongly depend on the reaction time and NaOH concentration used. In this study, a polymerization initiator is covalently grafted on the alkali-activated Ti substrates by using a phosphonic acid as coupling agent and the resulting surfaces are used as scaffolds to drive the growth of tethered poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) chains via a surface initiated atom transfer radical polymerisation (SI-ATRP). A close-up investigation of how different treatment times (1 h, 3 h, 6 h, 12 h, and 24 h) and NaOH concentrations (0.1 M, 0.5 M, 1 M, 2 M, and 5 M) affect the final PMMA morphology and thickness are presented.
