Negative Poisson's Ratio

ABSTRACTWe describe the flow and filtration control imparted to membranes through the adsorption of polymer brushes onto the interior pores. The brushes exhibit a negative Poisson's ratio, i.e. they swell under shear, and as a result behave as sensors and valves controlling the flow and filtration through the pore. The valve-behavior of brushes adsorbed onto cylindrical pores displays the same constant discharge control but also exhibits a critical shear rate for brush swelling.
