Partially wetted PNiPAAm brushes responses to different atmospheres — •Simon Schubotz1,2, Petra Uhlmann1, Andreas Fery1,2, Jens-Uwe Sommer1,2, and Günter K.

In our study, we focused on the partial wetting of co-nonsolvent polymer brushes and the dynamics of a three-phase contact line moving over such brushes. We performed wetting experiments in different atmospheres and used an ellipsometer to measure the brush's thickness to understand the impact of the atmosphere on the brush. Our findings show that PNiPAAm brushes exhibit a memory effect when depositing drops consecutively at the same position. The subsequent drops adapt the brush and change the drop's wetting behavior. In further wetting experiments, we measured water drops in an ethanol-saturated atmosphere on PNiPAAm brushes. The measurements show that an ethanol-enriched atmosphere strongly affects the memory effect reversibly. We present strategies to counter the mixing between the atmosphere and the drop.
