T1 - Analyzing the network formation and curing kinetics of epoxy resins by in situ near-infrared measurements with variable heating rates N2 - Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) turned out to be well suited for analyzing the degree of cure for epoxy systems. In contrast to dynamic scanning calorimetry (DSC), where the released heat of reaction determines the degree of epoxy conversion indirectly, NIR spectroscopy is able to determine the conversion directly by analyzing structural changes. Therefore, a new heatable NIR cell was equipped with an integrated thermocouple, which enables the real sample temperature to be controlled and monitored in situ during epoxy curing. Dynamic scans at different heating rates were used for kinetic modelling, to define kinetic parameters and to predict real curing processes. The kinetic models and their parameters were validated with an isothermal and a more complex multi-step curing scenario. Two available commercial epoxy systems based on DGEBA were used with an anhydride and with an amine hardener. NIR results were compared with DSC data. The simulated conversion predicted with a model fitted on the basis of NIR and DSC dynamic scans showed good agreement with the conversion measured in the isothermal curing validation test. Due to the proven reliability of NIR in measuring the reaction progress of curing, it can be considered a versatile measurement system for in situ monitoring of component production in the automotive, aerospace and wind energy sectors.

Diese potentielle Energie kann bei Zündung schlagartig als Strahlungsenergie und Druckerhöhung freigesetzt werden. Nanoskalige Komponenten erhöhen zusätzlich die innere Energie des Materials um den Beitrag der Oberflächenenergie und verbessern die chemische Umsetzung durch bessere Durchmischung. Die hot-spot-Theorie zur Zündung von Explosivstoffen kombiniert mechanische Stimulation und einer dabei zu erreichenden Schwellwert-Energie mit der Temperatur. Wird die Energie zum exothermen Bindungsbruch etwa beim Reibvorgang erreicht entsteht auf der molekularen Skala ein hot-spot. Der Stoff explodiert, wenn der hot-spot ausreichend lange besteht, sich verstärkt und nicht durch Energiedissipation (Festkörperschallausbreitung, Wärmediffusion) verzehrt wird. Rasterkraftmikroskopie (AFM – atomic force microscopy) dient nicht nur zur bildgebenden Vermessung der Topographie und der mechanischen Eigenschaften, sondern kann auch zur gezielten Veränderung der Oberflächen verwendet werden. Solche lithographischen Verfahren bedienen sich im AFM-Kontaktmodus (Scratching Lithography) direkt der Reibung, im hochfrequenten intermittierenden Kontaktverfahren realisiert man einen vibrierenden Kontaktes (Dynamic Plowing Lithography), der beim Eindringen in eigenen Indentationseindruck reibt. In beiden Fällen überträgt man durch Kombination einer Scherbewegung mit einer Variation des Kontaktdrucks Energie auf die Oberfläche, was nachweislich zum chemischen Bindungsbruch z.B. auf Polymeroberflächen führt. Zwei kristalline Explosivstoffe werden untersucht und sowohl dissipative Effekte als auch die Generierung eines hot-spots demonstriert. N2 - Using nanoscale components increase the internal energy by the contribution of surface energy and improve the progress of the chemical reaction. The hot-spot theory of ignition describes the conversion of mechanical energy of friction or impact into heat, leading to exothermal decomposition of the explosive. Thus, it is evident that ignition should be studied on the nanoscale and atomic force microscopy (AFM) provides one of the best solutions to study such behavior. AFM, often used to map a topography image and local mechanical properties on a surface, can also be utilized for carrying lithography, namely scratching lithography or dynamic plowing lithography. In both cases shear stress combined with a variation of contact pressure transfers sufficient energy into the surface to break chemical bonds. Two crystalline explosives are investigated and dissipative processes as well as hot-spot generation are described. During the nanotribological test, the in-situ restructuring of molecular layers under ambient conditions was observed and recorded. T2 - 54.

The influences of oxygen, nitrogen and temperature are discussed. For a thermal decomposition and pyrolysis during combustion, the main pyrolysis of HIPS takes place while the remaining residue is a rather intact polymer, with a major share of the embedded Pr still present. Subsequently, mainly amorphous phosphates and a slight amount of crystalline Mg3(PO4)2 and Mg2P2O7 are formed at the highest temperatures. Only with increasing mass loss does the remaining polystyrene structure decompose and graphitic structures occur. The influence of oxygen on the decomposition mechanism is most obvious for the binary system Mg(OH)2/Pr. Pr vanishes more rapidly and crystalline, oxygen-rich magnesium phosphates are formed. In HIPS/Mg(OH)2/Pr systems the polymer acts as a barrier to reaction by the embedded particles, so that major characteristics of an anaerobic decomposition are found. Significant amounts of phosphorus are retained in the condensed phase through a reaction of Pr with Mg(OH)2 to mostly amorphous phosphates. This formation of amorphous inorganic magnesium phosphates can act as an additional physical barrier. This study outlines some advanced approaches for controlling the condensed-phase mechanisms of phosphorus and underlines that solid-state NMR is a most powerful tool for investigating the organic and inorganic residues.

A1 - Radnik, Jörg A1 - Sturm, Heinz T1 - High precision micropatterning of polydopamine by Multiphoton Lithography N2 - Mussel-inspired polydopamine (PDA) initiated a multifunctional modification route that leads to the generation of novel advanced materials and their applications. However, existing PDA deposition techniques still exhibit poor spatial control, have a very limited capability of micropatterning and do not allow to locally tune PDA topography. Herein, we demonstrate PDA deposition based on Multiphoton Lithography (MPL) that enables full spatial and temporal control with nearly total freedom of patterning design. Using MPL, we achieve 2D microstructures of complex design with pattern precision of 0.8 μm without the need of a photomask or stamp. Moreover, this approach permits adjusting the morphology and thickness of the fabricated microstructure within one deposition step, resulting in a unique tunability of materials properties. The chemical composition of PDA is confirmed and its ability for protein enzyme immobilization is demonstrated. This work presents a new methodology for high precision and complete control of PDA deposition, enabling PDA incorporation in applications where fine and precise local surface functionalization is required. Possible applications include multicomponent functional elements and devices in microfluidics or lab-on-a-chip systems.

A1 - Radnik, Jörg A1 - Sturm, Heinz T1 - Polydopamine micropatterning for selective substrate bio-functionalization N2 - Inspired by the chemistry of mussel adhesive proteins, polydopamine (PDA) exhibits strong adhesion to nearly any kind of organic or inorganic surface and shows high ability for surface post-modification and secondary reactions. As a result, PDA has been widely used as a base adlayer to enable versatile surface chemistry and functionalization. It has shown great potential in wide range of applications including biomedical field (e.g., drug delivery, adhesives, photothermal therapy, bone and tissue engineering, cell adhesion, biosensing). However, implementation of PDA in microdevices is still hindered by insufficient spatial and temporal control of excited deposition methods. In this work we present a novel approach to fabricate tunable micropatterned substrates where mussel-inspired chemistry provides base for various surface modification [2]. Current approach applies Multiphoton Lithography (MPL) to initiate local PDA formation, and, therefore, does not require use of microstamp or photomask. As a result, the microstructures of complex designs can be produced with the spatial resolution down to 0.8 μm (Figure 1). The desired design can be easily altered by adjusting the stl model or the fabrication code. Unlike the conventional deposition of PDA based on dopamine auto-oxidation, our method does not require presence of strong oxidants, metal ions or alkaline pH. Herein-demonstrated deposition approach will significantly facilitate applications of polydopamine and other mussel-inspired materials in microdevices and high-resolution active microcomponents (e.g., in MEMS and microfluidics). Adjustment of MPL parameters revealed that the morphology and thickness of resulted PDA microstructures can be controlled by altering the laser power and its scanning velocity. As a result, it also enables the production of micropatterns with structural gradient. Apart from the glass substrate, we performed PDA patterning at surfaces of different nature such as polychlorotrifluoroethylene, polydimethylsiloxane, polyethylene terephthalate, silicon wafers, and fluorinated glass coverslips. We tested different composition of dopamine solution for its ability of PDA buildup. Solutions containing Tris buffer, phosphate buffer or DI water only as well as different pH (6.0, 7.0 and 8.5) could be successfully applied for high-precision PDA micropatterning. Moreover, the effect of antioxidants and purging of the solution with oxygen and nitrogen was investigated. In all cases, no decrease of deposition efficiency was observed. The chemical nature of PDA was confirmed by locally recorded vibrational and x-ray photoelectron spectra. To ensure post-modification potential of MPL deposited PDA we demonstrated one-step deposition of micropatterns with trypsin. Obtained bio-functionalised surface can be further applied as a protein sensing active microelement.
