Description

Research data supporting SPIE Raw Data. zip file contains the high resolution figures, original contact angle images and experimental data in the main text of the manuscript.

In the folder labelled ‘Figures’, Figures 1-5 from the SPIE proceedings are included as high resolution PNG files, as well as the data from each figure in their respective folders.

Figure 1. Figure 1 ureasil reaction scheme.png file contains the reaction scheme used in Figure 1.

Figure 2. ‘Ureasils UV Transmittance.txt’ contains the XY data used for the graphs of % UV-Vis transmittance of DU(400) tU(403) and dU(600), which was plotted against wavelength from 200-800 nm. DU400 photo-luminescence emission and excitation spectra data are in respective .txt files. The XY data is in both normalised and un-normalised form. They measure the excitation and emission over a range of wavelengths 300-430 nm. Normalised graphs were used in the manuscript.

Figure 3. FTIR-ATR XY data: dU600 DU400 and tU403 in the Amide I region from 1740-1600 cm-1 are presented in ‘FTIR Data tU(403).txt , ‘FTIR Data dU(600).txt , and FTIR Data DU(400).txt’. Peaks were fitted using origin in a mixture of Gaussian and Voigt fits. A .png file labelled ‘Summary of the FTIR fitting data’ is provided with information on peak width, area and fit model used.

Figure 4. Mechanical testing: .txt files containing the XY data from tensile testing of dU(600), DU(400) and tU(403) are listed as: Stress strain (Ureasil) (a/b/c/d/e), with a/b/c/d/e referring to the number of repeat measurements taken. The same format is used for the 4-point bending tests, which are labelled as 4-point bending of (ureasil) (a/b/c/d/e). In all cases, at least 3 repeats were used.

Figure 5. The XY data from the measurements are presented in ‘Contact Angle dU(600).txt, Contact Angle DU(400).txt, and Contact Angle tU(403).txt’. The folder labelled Contact Angle Snapshots contains jpeg files of snapshots taken during contact angle measurements on the surfaces of the ureasils (dU600, DU400 and tU403).
