abstract = {The tracer diffusion coefficient of six different permanent
gases in polymer-grafted nanoparticle (GNP) membranes, i.e.,
neat GNP constructs with no solvent, show a maximum as a
function of the grafted chain length at fixed grafting
density. This trend is reproduced for two different NP sizes
and three different polymer chemistries. We postulate that
nonmonotonic changes in local, segmental friction as a
function of graft chain length (at fixed grafting density)
must underpin these effects, and use quasielastic neutron
scattering to probe the self-motions of polymer chains at
the relevant segmental scale (i.e., sampling local friction
or viscosity). These data, when interpreted with a jump
diffusion model, show that, in addition to the speeding-up
in local chain dynamics, the elementary distance over which
segments hop is strongly dependent on graft chain length. We
therefore conclude that transport modifications in these GNP
layers, which are underpinned by a structural transition
from a concentrated brush to semidilute polymer brush, are a
consequence of both spatial and temporal changes, both of
which are likely driven by the lower polymer densities of
the GNPs relative to the neat polymer},
