T237 |
0-94 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The milling increased the surface roughness of the COC plates also increases the surface area. |
T238 |
95-234 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Inhibition of the amplification can be caused by large surface areas as the used chemicals have more surface to have interaction with [44]. |
T239 |
235-573 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The created surface roughness is visualized using a FEI Sirion high resolution scanning electron microscope (HR-SEM) (FEI Company, Hillsboro, OR, USA) and measured using a Bruker Icon Dimension AFM in tapping mode with Bruker Tespa-V2 cantilevers (Bruker Nano Surfaces, Santa Barbara, CA, USA) and Gwyddion 2.52 open source freeware [62]. |
T240 |
574-608 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The results are shown in Figure 8. |
T241 |
609-668 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The surface roughness of pristine COC had a RRMS of 3.5 nm. |
T242 |
669-741 |
Sentence |
denotes |
This increased two orders of magnitude after milling (RRMS of 310.1 nm). |
T243 |
742-941 |
Sentence |
denotes |
With the reported surface treatment [44,59] we were capable of decreasing the surface roughness to a value even lower than that of pristine COC and the lowest reported in literature (RRMS of 0.9 nm). |
T244 |
942-1153 |
Sentence |
denotes |
For this grade of COC (TOPAS 6017) it worked the best to do four short exposures of 5 s, with N2 blow drying after each exposure, instead of one longer exposure, as is more common in other grades of COC [44,59]. |
T245 |
1154-1303 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The difference in duration for the cyclohexane vapor post-treatment can be explained by the different ratios of the copolymers present in each grade. |
T246 |
1304-1417 |
Sentence |
denotes |
As the grade number increase, the ratio changes towards more norbornene monomers and less linear ethene monomers. |
T247 |
1418-1605 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The norbornene is more apolar due to the bridged cyclic hydrocarbon present in its molecular structure and therefore, will dissolve faster in non-polar solvents, like cyclohexane (vapor). |
