General Introduction to Silicone Surfaces -- Sum Frequency Generation Vibrational Spectroscopy of Silicone Surfaces & Interfaces -- Creating Functional Materials by Chemical and Physical Functionalization of Silicone Elastomer Networks -- Using Surface-Attached Organosilanes to Control and Understand Hydrophobicity and Superhydrophobicity -- Comparison of Surface and Bulk Properties of Pendant and Hybrid Fluorosilicones -- The Design of Non-Wetting Surfaces with FluoroPOSS -- Langmuir Monolayers of Siloxanes and Silsesquioxanes -- On the Interactions of Proteins with Silicon-Based Materials -- Silicone Surfactants -- Silanes and Siloxanes as Coupling Agents to Glass: A Perspective -- Oxidative Surface Treatment of Silicone Rubber -- Surface Analysis of Silicones -- Surface Applications of Silicones.

Silicone Surface Science offers a survey of the major topics concerning the properties and behavior of silicone surfaces. It covers all main aspects of the subject, including: polydimethylsiloxane, spread monolayers, self-assembled monolayers, hydrophobicity and super-hydrophobicity, coupling agents, surfactants, fluorosilicones, surface treatments and surface analysis. This book brings together the field's leading experts who investigated both fundamental and applied aspects of silicone surface science and technology, and introduces the reader to the origins and historical development of silicone surfaces as well as to their most significant current key features. Silicone Surface Science will be an invaluable guide and indispensable reference source for all those interested in this important area of polymer and materials science and technology, from graduate students to experienced scientists alike.
