Amphiphilic Poly(Phenylene Sulfide)-Poly(Vinyl Catechol) Block Copolymers Enabling Hydrophobic/Hydrophilic Adhesion.
Poly(1,4-phenylene sulfide) (PPS) is a super-engineering plastic with a low weight and excellent thermostability for automobile and electronic applications. However, it exhibits poor adhesiveness and compatibility with other materials owing to its low polar and semicrystalline nature with strong π-π intermolecular inte...
