A novel route was introduced to synthesize dense polyacrylamide (PAM) onto the glass slide surface. To investigate surface chemistry of PAM on slides, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) utilized obtain detailed chemical state information layer constituents. The XPS peak data were consistent with presented model Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscope indicated presence which consist nodules. results showed that successfully immobilized slides a two-tier structure under aqueous condition monolayer anhydrous condition. Compared those condition, controllability molecular reproducibility much better, makes an advisable for study reaction mechanisms modified by PAM.
