Sammanfattning

The wetting behavior of a series of polymer-coated papers has been studied. Different ways of determining the acid-base properties of the polymers are presented. The well-known van Oss-Chaudhury-Good (vOCG) bi-bi polar model is compared with more simplified mono-bi polar and mono-mono polar models. The effect of surface roughness on the wetting was also studied with atomic force microscopy. The overall wetting of each probe liquid was evaluated by calculating the work of adhesion to the polymer surfaces. It is shown that ethylene glycol and water may be considered as mono polar liquids, which simplifies the original vOCG-model. It is also shown that in most cases the surface energy values are in the same range when using both the complex bi-bi polar approach and the simpler mono-mono polar approach. The different polymers used are found to be of a predominating basic character.
