Polymers containing poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) units can exhibit excellent antifouling properties, which have been proposed/used for coating of biomedical implants, separation membranes, and structures in marine environments, as well as active ingredients in detergent formulations to avoid soil redepositioning in textile laundry. This study aimed to elucidate the molecular behavior of a copolymer poly(MMA-co-MPEGMA) containing antiadhesive PEG side chains and a backbone of poly(methyl methacrylate), at a buried polymer/solution interface. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was used as a substrate to model polyester textile surfaces. Sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy was applied to examine the interfacial behavior of the copolymer at PET/solution interfaces in situ and in real time. Complementarily, copolymer adsorption on PET and subsequent antiadhesion against protein foulants were probed by quartz-crystal microbalance experiments with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D). Both applied techniques show that poly(MMA-co-MPEGMA) adsorbs significantly to the PET/solution interface at bulk polymer solution concentrations as low as 2 ppm, while saturation of the surface was reached at 20 ppm. The hydrophobic MMA segments provide an anchor for the copolymer to bind onto PET in an ordered way, while the pendant PEG segments are more disordered but contain ordered interfacial water. In the presence of considerable amounts of dissolved surfactants, poly(MMA-co-MPEGMA) could still effectively adsorb on the PET surface and remained stable at the surface upon washing with hot and cold water or surfactant solution. In addition, it was found that adsorbed poly(MMA-co-MPEGMA) provided the PET surface with antiadhesive properties and could prevent protein deposition, highlighting the superior surface affinity and antifouling performance of the copolymer. The results obtained in this work demonstrate that amphiphilic copolymers containing PMMA anchors and PEG side chains can be used in detergent formulations to modify polyester surfaces during laundry and reduce deposition of proteins (and likely also other soils) on the textile.
