Realized surface coatings. (A) Overview of the examined self-assembled monolayers with different functional groups. The modifications NH2, pyridinium (Py), and SO3H are synthesized via a bromine monolayer (Br), which is substituted by azide (N3) and reduced to NH2, substituted by Py or thioacetate (SCOCH3), and oxidized to SO3H. Carboxylic acid groups (COOH) are generated via oxidation of a monolayer with terminal vinylic groups (CH=CH2). (B) Infrared spectra of SAMs recorded via DRIFT spectroscopy. (C) Water contact angles of final modifications (blue) as well as their intermediate SAMs (gray). Median ± interquartile range (n ≥ 8). SAM, self-assembled monolayer.
