Surface glass transition temperature of amorphous polymers. A new insight with SFM

The surface glass transition temperature, Tg, of several amorphous polystyrene (PS) samples each with a narrow molecular weight distribution covering the range of Mn from 3 900 to 1 340 000 has been measured by force-distance measurements using a scanning force microscope (SFM). Hysteresis in the lo...
