Abstract

Interfacial structure of deuterated poly(methyl methacrylate) (dPMMA) and polystyrene (dPS) films with gases such as carbon dioxide (CO₂) and nitrogen (Ni) under a pressure of 0.1 MPa was examined by neutron reflectivity (NR). The interface was analyzed using a model that the density of the outermost region of the films was lower than that of the interior region. The density profile was expressed by a single exponential equation with a decay length (ζ). The &zeta. values for the dPMMA films under CO₂ and N₂ were larger than that under vacuum at a given temperature, and the extent was more remarkable under CO₂ than under N₂. On the other hand, such a gas sorption was not clearly discerned for the dPS films. Finally, the surface relaxation in the dPMMA and dPS films under CO₂ and N₂ was discussed on the basis of lateral force measurements.
