Figure 4.
(a) Plot of Gc vs nx for a series of nx < M/I BBEs with progressively larger nx values (black data). NCIs with dramatically improved Gc (red data) illustrate the power of the D3 strategy in designing more effective PSAs. These Gc values were determined via PIF of synthesized samples using a glass annular probe (see Experimental Section for more details). (b) Plot depicting the results of contact angle testing measurements performed on synthesized samples. Importantly, the values for both the advancing and receding angles are independent of the architectural changes being made (e.g., cross-link density or isomerization).
