Abstract

Direct measurements of slippage of a polymer melt within 100 nm of a solid surface, under simple shear, are reported. In the case of a high molecular weight polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) interacting weakly with the solid surface, a sharp transition between weak and strong slippage is observed as a function of shear stress. For strong polymer-surface interactions, slippage is highly reduced, and no transition is observed. The results are compared to a theoretical model recently proposed by Brochard and de Gennes.
