(author), Besseling, N.A.M. (author)The Hamaker constant between graphene oxide and silica, which quantifies the strength of van der Waals forces is determined, by mimicking a “vacuum spacer” in an atomic force microscopyforce study. It is demonstrated that, a 2D spacer is expected to yield an accurately defined separation, owing to the high atom density and strength in planar...journal article 2017

(author)Polyborosiloxanes (PBSs) are viscoelastic, transparent, colourless, self-healable polymer matrices, synthesized by reacting linear polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMSs) with boric acid (BA) above 150°C. BA takes part not only in cleaving the PDMS chains, but also contributes boronic-acid like moieties to the cleaved chain ends, which provide...conference paper 2013
