Swelling of poly (methyl acrylate) brushes in acetone vapor
Summary
Poly(methyl acrylate) brushes, made by a simple synthesis, swell by more than 30% within seconds in acetone vapour (ellipsometry) and raise the acetone sensitivity of a QCM sensor more than sixfold. Unlike in liquids, their swelling in vapour does not depend on grafting density or chain length, which makes them robust candidates for vapour sensors.
