Interfacial stiffening of polymer thin films under nanoconfinement
Abstract
Changes in the mechanical properties of polymer thin films due to substrate and free surfaces determine the performance of soft nanomaterials. Here we systematically investigate how these interfaces influence the elasticity of supported polymer thin films. Our simulation results demonstrate that the substrate–film interfacial interaction has a strong effect on the elastic response of the films, in which the modulus increases with the strength of...
