Plasmachemical Double Click Thiol–ene Reactions for Wet Electrical Barrier

Fraser, R.C.; Carletto, A.; Wilson, M.; Badyal, J.P.S.

Abstract

Click thiol–ene chemistry is demonstrated for the reaction of thiol containing molecules with surface alkene bonds during electrical discharge activation. This plasmachemical reaction mechanism is shown to be 2-fold for allyl mercaptan (an alkene and thiol group containing precursor), comprising self-cross-linked nanolayer deposition in tandem with interfacial cross-linking to the surface alkene bonds of a polyisoprene base layer. A synergistic multilayer structure is attained which displays high wet electrical barrier performance during immersion in water.
