Chemomechanical bending behaviors of ionizable thin films with gradient network-size
An ionizable thin film with gradient network size in direction of thickness was prepared using 10-undecenoic acid(UA) by plasma polymerization. Gradient structure in the network size was estimated by values of relative diffusion coefficient of ferocian ions through the film. The obtained film was found to show chemomechanical behavior. The film bent in alkaline solution due to anisotropic swelling in direction of thickness and recovered to the original shape in acid solution.
