Joonyeong Kim, assistant professor, Chemistry, published a paper, “Measurements of Water Sorption Enthalpy on Polymer Surfaces and Its Effect on Protein Adsorption” in Surface Science 2011, 605, 419-423. In the article, the molar enthalpy of sorption of water vapor onto three polymer surfaces and its effect on nonspecific protein adsorption were investigated by inverse gas chromatography with the ultimate goals of understanding biocompatibility.
