Abstract:
Superhydrophobicity refers to surfaces with extremely large water droplet contact angles (usually greater than 150°). This phenomenon requires a hydrophobic material with micro or nano-scale roughness. Superhydrophobic surfaces exist in nature (e.g. the lotus leaf) and can be produced synthetically. This project focuses on the development and characterization of superhydrophobic materials with tunable wettability (i.e. smart superhydrophobic materials). In this study, surfaces were prepared by electrospinning thin, aligned polystyrene fibers onto a piezoelectric unimorph substrate. Results showed electric field induced changes in substrate curvature, which produced corresponding changes in surface wettability. From experiments, an average change in water contact angle of 7.2° ± 1.2° with 90% confidence was observed in ~2μm diameter fiber coatings electrospun for 5 minutes with applied electric field. In addition, fiber coatings electrospun with equivalent deposition showed average electric field induced changes in WCA of 2.5° ± 0.92° for lower diameter fibers (~1μm) and 3.5° ± 1.37° for higher diameter fibers (~2μm) with 90% confidence.

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is the elucidation of structure-properties relationship of molecular semiconductors for electronic devices. This involves the use of a comprehensive set of simulation techniques, ranging from quantum-mechanical to numerical stochastic methods, and also the development of ad-hoc computational tools. In more detail, the research activity regarded two main topics: the study of electronic properties and structural behaviour of liquid crystalline (LC) materials based on functionalised oligo(p-phenyleneethynylene) (OPE), and the investigation on the electric field effect associated to OFET operation on pentacene thin film stability. In this dissertation, a novel family of substituted OPE liquid crystals with applications in stimuli-responsive materials is presented. In more detail, simulations can not only provide evidence for the characterization of the liquid crystalline phases of different OPEs, but elucidate the role of charge transfer states in donor-acceptor LCs containing an endohedral metallofullerene moiety. Such systems can be regarded as promising candidates for organic photovoltaics. Furthermore, exciton dynamics simulations are performed as a way to obtain additional information about the degree of order in OPE columnar phases. Finally, ab initio and molecular mechanics simulations are used to investigate the influence of an applied electric field on pentacene reactivity and stability. The reaction path of pentacene thermal dimerization in the presence of an external electric field is investigated; the results can be related to the fatigue effect observed in OFETs, that show significant performance degradation even in the absence of external agents. In addition to this, the effect of the gate voltage on a pentacene monolayer are simulated, and the results are then compared to X-ray diffraction measurements performed for the first time on operating OFETs.

Abstract:
The self-assembly blends of cellulose propionate (CP) and fluorine (F)-containing cellulose derivatives was examined on a model system of solvent cast films. The F-containing derivatives were either high molecular weight statistical cellulose esters with a number of F-containing substituent evenly distributed along the backbone (F-esters), or F-terminated CP-segments with exactly one F-containing endgroup. The F-esters were synthesized in a homogeneous phase and identified by 19F-NMR. Thermal analysis showed improved thermal stability of the F-esters when compared to F-free derivatives. 1-monohydroxy functionalized CP-segments were synthesized by HBr depolymerization using either a commercially available CP with residual OH-groups or a perpropionylated CP (CTP). The hydrolysis using the commercial CP yielded only segments of a minimum DP of 50 and the Mark-Houwink constant declined from 1 to 0.6. The results indicate that in the presence of free hydroxyls branches are formed by transglycosidation. The hydrolysis from perpropionylated CP resulted in segments with a minimum DP of 7, which is in accordance to previous studies. F-terminated CP segments were synthesized by coupling of the appropriate F-containing alcohol to the CP segment via toluene diisocyanate. Solutions containing F-terminated CP-segments showed typical critical micelle behavior. The critical micelle concentration depended on the molecular weight of the CP segment and the type of F-containing endgroup. The micelles are thought to consist of a core of the F-endgroups and a corona made-up of CP. Films containing the oligomers cast from micellar solution revealed a linear decrease in wetting force according to the blend composition of the oligomer, i.e. behavior according to the rule of mixing. This indicated the absence of surface segregation of the F-endgroup and it is explained with the fact that the micellar structure is retained in the solid state, suppressing surface segregation. The solid state micelles were visualized as dome-like protrusions by height image atomic force microscopy. In systems blended with CP the distance between the protrusions was found to increase with increasing CP content which was explained by a dilution process. Films containing F-esters were characterized by wetting force measurements and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The wetting force decreased dramatically at low blend content of the F-ester and at the same time an F surface-concentration higher then expected from the blend composition was found by XPS. This indicated self-assembly by surface segregation of the F-containing species during film formation. The extent of surface segregation was found to depend on the type of the F-ester group as well as on the blend concentration of the F-ester. Dynamic wetting force measurements revealed hysteresis in films containing either F-esters or F-terminated CP segments. The hysteresis was found to be both kinetic (water sorption and reorganization) and thermodynamic (surface roughness and surface coverage with F-moieties) in nature. Consecutive force loops revealed an increase in the wetting force (advancing and receding) with increasing loop number, indicating the increased hydrophobicity of the surface. The force increase was determined to be due to water sorption as well as due to surface reorganization. An increase in the size of the F-groups signified a decrease in reorganization rate due to a decreased mobility of the group. The process of reorganization was fully reversible, a behavior which is congruent with the definition of smart behavior.

Abstract:
In the last decades, electrochemistry has been regarded as a powerful tool to address some of the key challenges that in the framework of sustainability and green energy. In particular, the application of smart, hierarchical materials as electrocatalysts is generating new opportunities for interesting developments. Nanostructured carbon has been heavily employed as a fundamental component for the proposed catalytic materials due to its outstanding electronic and textural properties. This thesis focuses on the exploitation of strategically designed materials based on carbon as electrocatalysts to be used in devices such as new generation fuel cells, electrolyzers for the production of hydrogen peroxide and sensors for its electrochemical detection. Each of these devices is envisioned as a way of reducing the environmental impact, by either being a sustainable source of energy, or substituting energy consuming and non-environmentally friendly processes. In particular, a hybrid Pd/CeO2/C material, prepared through a strategic protocol that allows an intimate contact among the three phases, has been employed as anodic electrocatalyst in both Anion Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (AEM-FC) and Direct Alcohol Fuel Cells (DAFCs) working in alkaline media and fed with biomass derived polyalcohols. Concerning H2O2 electrosynthesis, N-doped carbon embedding Co nanoparticles have been studied for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR) in acidic environment, and the material’s outstanding selectivity has been correlated to its N-type species distribution, as well as its porosity and the indirect electronic interaction between the doped carbon phase and the internal metal. Finally, a metal-free electrosensor for the detection of hydrogen peroxide has been produced exploiting the electronic properties of a -COOH decorated graphene, obtained through a controlled functionalization protocol. In all cases, the strategic synthetic procedure gives rise to materials with enhanced catalytic performances in terms of activity, selectivity and stability, and the work has been communicated through publication (already published or in the process of being published) in peer-reviewed journals.

Abstract:
Buoyancy control is needed in small autonomous underwater devices to enable greater flexibility in measurements in the ocean. This project has examined a number of ways in which buoyancy changes might be achieved. Firstly, an extensive review of the mechanisms by which various marine organisms control their buoyancy was undertaken. There is a tremendous diversity of natural buoyancy control mechanisms, but most of these mechanisms produce only slow (and small) changes in buoyancy. Studies were carried out on the behaviour of polymer gel systems that exhibit large volume changes under the influence of solvent composition and/or temperature. The effects of salinity were investigated, from 5 parts per thousand (ppt) to 35ppt, on hydrolysed polyacrylamide gels, over the temperature range of 5°C to 40°C. It was found that the gels decreased in volume in the solutions, this effect being most pronounced in the 35ppt solution. As temperature increased, the volume changes were observed to decrease. The cyclical volumetric strain behaviour of the polyacrylamide gels, by alternate exposure to saline solutions and distilled water, resulted in significant (~200%) volume changes induced over periods of 2 days. In a second study, the density change associated with the volumetric strain of polymeric materials was investigated in poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), NIPA, gels. The temperature-sensitive NIPA gels, immersed in distilled water or seawater solutions at temperatures ranging from 5°C to 50°C, exhibited volume changes of over 800%, and density changes of 30-40%. NIPA gels exhibit a faster response time than polyacrylamide gels, and their density and volume changes have potential application in buoyancy change. Experiments were also performed on NiTi shape memory alloys (SMA), which change in length and mechanical properties with temperature. A controllable parallel-plate device was constructed, linked by four helical SMA springs, which exerted significant axial forces with the application of temperature. The device is capable of producing substantial volume changes if contained in a suitable enclosure. It is currently on loan to the Science Museum, London, as part of a new exhibition of the Wellcome Wing.

Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 44-46).
With aging infrastructure, not only in the United States, but worldwide, we look toward designing structures which can withstand the test of time. Creating structures that can adapt to changes in the environment and provide better performance is at the forefront of current research. Reinforced concrete, one of the most widely used materials, can be reinvented using this philosophy. In this thesis, smart materials are classified as materials which can provide sensing, actuation or self-repair. Three different smart materials were studied including self-healing concrete which provides self-repair, shape memory alloys as reinforcement for reinforced concrete which provides actuation and carbon fiber reinforced concrete which provides sensing. It was found that each smart material had potential to improve the performance of reinforced concrete structures. Factors that affect larger scale implementation are discussed.

Abstract:
This paper presents an initial step towards a new class of soft robotics materials, where localized, geometric patterning of smart materials can exhibit discrete levels of stiffness through the combinations of smart materials used. This work is inspired by a variety of biological systems where actuation is accomplished by modulating the local stiffness in conjunction with muscle contractions. Whereas most biological systems use hydrostatic mechanisms to achieve stiffness variability, and many robotic systems have mimicked this mechanism, this work aims to use smart materials to achieve this stiffness variability. Here we present the compositing of the low melting point Field’s metal, shape memory alloy Nitinol, and a low melting point thermoplastic Polycaprolactone (PCL), composited in simple beam structure within silicone rubber. The comparison in bending stiffnesses at different temperatures, which reside between the activation temperatures of the composited smart materials demonstrates the ability to achieve discrete levels of stiffnesses within the soft robotic tissue.

Abstract:
In this paper, we study fully coupled electromagnetic-elastic behaviors present in the structures of smart beams using variational asymptotic beam sections and geometrically exact fully intrinsic beam equations. We present results for energy harvesting from smart beams under various oscillatory loads in both the axial and transverse directions and calculate the corresponding deformations. The magnitude of these loads are varied to show the generalized trends produced by piezoelectric materials. Smart materials change mechanical energy to electrical energy; therefore, changing the structural dynamic behavior of the structure and its stiffness matrix. A smart structure can be designed to undergo larger loads without changing the surface area of the cross-section.
