Abstract

We discuss bridging between a grafted layer and an opposing plate which adsorbs the polymer. The case of end adsorption is considered, as well as the case where all monomers adsorb. We predict that with increasing adsorption an exclusion zone grows in the vicinity of the adsorbing plate, this slows down the kinetics. For end adsorption we study the kinetics and argue that two main processes are involved: the exploration of the brush by a free end and its adsorption through the exclusion zone.
