ABSTRACT

Material selection, material mixing, and material processing to create a thin film affect the surface properties of the resulting layer. The surface properties in question are morphology and roughness. The surface roughness of a thin layer can be used as an indicator that expresses the surface area of a surface. The surface area and roughness of a thin layer applied to a biosensor can affect the sensitivity of the sensor when interacting with an analyte. Thin films that have a large surface area tend to be able to adsorb certain molecules from an analyte. This study showed that the addition of 18-Crown-6 ether (CE) to the polymer membrane consisting of a mixture of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) and Polystyrene (PS) caused changes in the morphology and roughness of the membrane. The addition of CE into the PVC-PS-CE membrane causes the size of the cavity on the surface of the membrane to be smaller. The more CE composition in the PVC-PS-CE layer, the more hollow surface morphology. The more CE content, the more cavities on the membrane surface. Based on the resulting morphological analysis, it can be concluded that the addition of CE into the PVC-PS-CE membrane can increase the surface property of the PVC-PS-CE membrane, which is proven by the value of the surface roughness of the membrane. The surface roughness of the membrane increased along with the addition of CE content in the PVC-PS-CE layer, which was indicated by the increasing value of Ra resulting from measurements using the Topography Measurement System (TMS).
