Reversible colorimetric ion sensors based on surface initiated polymerization of photochromic polymers
Reversible colorimetric ion sensors based on surface initiated polymerization of photochromic polymers. Chemical Communications 2008, 6288-6290.
Abstract
Spiropyran containing polymer brushes were used as reversible, photoswitchable optical sensors that show selectivity for different metal ions and drastic changes in surface wettability.
