Abstract
The demulsification effect of three types of block copolymers, BP123, BPF123, and H123, with the same PEO and PPO segments but different hydrophobic modification groups on crude oil emulsions and the properties of oil-water interfaces were investigated using demulsification experiments, an interfacial tensiometer, and surface viscoelastic and zeta potential instruments in this paper. The results showed that the hydrophobic modification group of the block copolymers had great effects on the demulsification performance. The H123 block copolymers with the strongest hydrophobicity had the best demulsification effect on the crude oil emulsions. The properties of the oil-water interfaces indicated that the modified block copolymers achieved the demulsification of crude oil emulsions by reducing the strength of the oil-water interfacial film and the interfacial tension.

Abstract
Specifically adsorbed bottlebrush coatings are found in nature as brush-like glycoproteins that decorate biointerfaces and provide antifouling, lubrication, or wear-protection. Although various synthetic strategies have been developed to mimic glycoprotein structure and function, the use of these mimics is still limited because of the current lack of understanding of their adsorption behavior and surface conformation. In this paper, we examine the adsorption behavior of PEG-based, biotinylated bottlebrushes with different backbone and bristle lengths to streptavidin model surfaces in phosphate-buffered saline. By using quartz crystal microbalance, localized surface plasmon resonance, and atomic force microscopy, we learn how bottlebrush dimensions impact their adsorption kinetics, surface conformation, mechanical properties, and antifouling properties. Our bottlebrushes qualitatively mirror the adsorption behavior of linear polymers and exhibit three kinetic regimes of adsorption: (I) a transport-limited regime, (II) a pause, and (III) a penetration-limited regime. Furthermore, we find that the bristle length more dramatically affects brush properties than the backbone length. Generally, larger bottlebrush dimensions lead to reduced molar adsorption, retarded kinetics, weaker antifouling, and softer brush coatings. Longer bristles also lead to less mass adsorption, while the opposite trend is observed for increasing backbone length. In summary, our findings aid the rational design of new bottlebrush coatings by elucidating how their dimensions impact adsorption, surface conformation, and the properties of the final coating.

Abstract
AbstractA new type of oligomer betaine surfactants pentasodium N,N′,N″-alkyl diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid containing five carboxylate groups, three quaternary ammonium groups and three hydrophobic groups was synthesized by alkaline neutralization reaction and quaternization with diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid, sodium hydroxide and long chain alkyl bromide as main raw materials. The chemical structures of the prepared compounds were confirmed by FTIR, 1H NMR, MS spectroscopy and elementary analysis. With the increasing length of the carbon chain, the CMC of the synthesized compounds initially decreased. The surface active properties of these compounds were superior to that of the single chain betaine surfactants rich as decyl dimethyl betaine. The efficiency of adsorption at the water/air interface (pC20) of these surfactants was very high. It is found that the shorter hydrocarbon chain length of oligomer betaine surfactants, the faster the rate of reduction of surface tension, and the bigger the aggregation number of oligomer betaine surfactants are. Their foaming properties and wetting ability toward a felt chip, and lime-soap dispersing ability were investigated.

Abstract
The block polyethers PEO-PPO-ph-PPO-PEO (BPE) and PPO-PEO-ph-PEO-PPO (BEP) are synthesized by anionic polymerization using bisphenol A as initiator. Compared with Pluronic P123, the aggregation behaviors of BPE and BEP at an air/water interface are investigated by the surface tension and dilational viscoelasticity. The molecular construction can influence the efficiency and effectiveness of block polyethers in decreasing surface tension. BPE has the most efficient ability to decrease surface tension of water among the three block polyethers. The maximum surface excess concentration (Γ(max)) of BPE is larger than that of BEP or P123. Moreover, the dilational modulus of BPE is almost the same as that of P123, but much larger than that of BEP. The molecular dynamics simulation provides the conformational variations of block polyethers at the air/water interface.

Abstract
The chemical grafting of thiol-terminated poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (HS-PNIPAM) chains to a gold surface from a solution was investigated with a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) in real time. The frequency and energy dissipation responses revealed that short HS-PNIPAM chains exhibit three-regime kinetics of the grafting. In regimes I and II, the HS-PNIPAM chains form pancake and mushroom structures, respectively. In regime III, the chains form brushes. From regime II to regime III, the mushroom-to-brush transition occurs. For the longer HS-PNIPAM chains, because of the strong segment-surface interaction, the segments cannot desorb from the surface, and the chains do not undergo a pancake-to-brush transition.
