Given the exceedingly high interfacial area-to-volume ratios in polymer nanocomposites and the ability to manipulate the polymer/nanoparticle interfacial interactions, manipulating the chain dynamics at these interfaces has immense potential for impacting macroscopic properties. There, the polymer center-of-mass tracer diffusion coefficient (D) from attractive (hydroxyl terminated) and athermal (phenyl-terminated or polymer-grafted) substrates was measured over a range of temperatures and tracer molecular weights using elastic recoil detection. The tracer polymer diffusion slows significantly relative to the bulk when polymers are in direct contact with an attractive substrate and exhibits a weaker molecular weight dependence, D M M. For polymers without direct contacts on the attractive substrates and for athermal substrates, the diffusion coefficients are similar to the bulk case. The temperature dependence of these diffusion coefficients indicates that the slower diffusion at the interfaces is coupled to differences in polymer conformation and smaller fractional free volumes. These deviations from bulk are more pronounced for higher molecular weights and more attractive interfaces.
