Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
The results of this research project reveal the interface dominated properties of ZnO-nanostructures in combination with poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) as a polymeric phase. Different substrates such as stainless steel, poly(propylene) (PP) and hotdip galvanized steel (HDG) could be analyzed with regard to the impact of surface modification by means of ZnO-nanostructures and PAA. For metal substrates, the controlled electrochemical deposition of ZnO films with different aspect ratios via the adjustment of the electrolyte composition by adding HMTA was successfully performed. Consequently, in the case of platelet-like ZnO films, hexagonal structures enriched in ZnO polar crystalline facets were obtained. The SMFS results for PAA-modified cantilever clearly showed that coordinative binding of carboxylate groups to surface Zn-atoms dominate the composite properties. Moreover, dwell-time dependent adhesion measurements revealed the diffusion of PAA chains into the gaps of the ZnO NR films resulting in higher effective force values. This could not be reached in the case of platelet-like films, where, instead, equilibrium events as plateaus in the force distance curves could be detected for increasing dwell times. The successful synthesis of ZnO TP in a tube oven process could be used for further investigations. Spray coatings of PP foils with a nanocomposite film consisting of ZnO TP/ PAA show an increase in the shear test forces with increasing concentrations of ZnO TP. The analysis of failure of adhesion shows a breakage in the cores of the ZnO TP by cohesive ZnO crystal failure. This strong molecular adhesion behavior measured by SMFS could also be found on HDG samples coated with ZnO NR and ZnO nanocrystalline films prepared by controlling the hydrothermal growth with sodium citrate according to the project proposal. Here, the strong interactions between PAA and zinc atoms in the ZnO surface lead to a nanoetching of ZnO crystals. Therefore, the pre-treatment of ZnO films with PAA-containing solutions would make a highly industrial interesting improvement of the interfacial properties regarding macroscopic adhesion performance. Moreover, the platelet-like/ nanocrystalline ZnO films show a lower enhancement in the adhesion in comparison to the ZnO NR films even after immersion into PAA containing solutions. Finally, the combination of the usage of ZnO nanostructures with PAA lead to highly interesting, low-cost materials, and surface pre-treatment procedure. Especially, the spray coating in the time scale of some seconds open the door for a lot of industrial applications in in-line processes.
