Figure 3.

During a two-week exposure to DI water, θ_static was measured over a 5 min period on silicones bulk-modified with SMA amphiphiles (“XL diblock”, “diblock” and “triblock”; m = 13 and 30 for each). Bars are organized in terms of time of duration of water conditioning from left to right: 0 h, 2 h, 6 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, 6 days, 10 days, and 14 days. The final “patterned bar” in each series represents θ_{static, 5 min} following drying of the “14 day” water-conditioned specimens. (Note: 0 h time point corresponds to 5 min θ_static value in Figure 2.) Statistical analysis was done using single factor Anova. First, the t = 0 h time point was compared to the final “patterned bar” in each series (*indicates p < 0.05). Second, the t = 14 day time point of each SMA were compared to the t = 14 day time point of “XL diblock, m = 13” († indicates p < 0.05).
