Synthetic hybrid polymer nanofibers have been regarded as a new class of advanced materials with many potential applications. However, the lack of efficient, reactive large- area fibrous nanoscale polymeric substrates has been one of the major limitations in the development of these materials as advanced functional platforms. Herein, we demonstrate the utility of electrospun polyglycidyl methacrylate (PGMA) nanofibers as a highly versatile platform for the development of functional nanostructured materials. The utility of this platform as a reactive substrate is demonstrated by grafting poly (N-isopropyl acrylamide) to incorporate stimuli- responsive properties. Additionally, we demonstrate that functional nanocomposites can be fabricated using this platform with properties for sensing, fluorescence imaging and magneto-responsiveness.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 01 April 2016.
All research outputs
#18,449,393
of 22,858,915 outputs
Outputs from ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces
#11,791
of 17,335 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#290,341
of 400,601 outputs
Outputs of similar age from ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces
#221
of 306 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,858,915 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 17,335 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.6. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 400,601 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 15th percentile – i.e., 15% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 306 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 14th percentile – i.e., 14% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
