In this investigation the adsorption of nonionic polymers on model surfaces (cellulose, polypropylene, nylon and polyester) were studied using Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) technique. The underlying driving force for the adsorption of nonionic lubricants onto these surfaces was discussed and our experimental observations also confirmed expected behaviors: A greater affinity of the more hydrophobic polymer species with the hydrophobic surfaces and vice versa. Hydrophobic interactions are concluded as being a predominant factor in adsorption of nonionic polymer [polyalkylene glycols (PAGs) and co-polymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide (Pluronic)] on textile-relevant surfaces.
Keywords:Adsorption, Nonionic Polymers, Cellulose, Polypropylene, Nylon, PET, Hydrophobic forces
