Abstract

This research studies on VUV/O3-treated aromatic polyurea film from near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra. These spectra indicate that the benzene ring was cleaved after the treatment, and carboxyl and hydroxyl groups were formed at the cleaved sites. The VUV/O3-treated polyurea was applied to polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microchip for microchip electrophoresis (MCE) of bovine serum albumin (BSA). Fast electroosmotic mobility of 4.6×10 4 cm2V-1s-1 was realized as well as reduction of the BSA adhesion. This functional surface is useful for high speed MCE analysis.
