The layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition technique was used to coat and protect poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) substrate from organic solvent. PMMA and PDMS substrates were protected by polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEM) thin films of either poly(diallydimethiyl ammonium chloride) and Poly(styrene sulfonate) PDADMAC/PSS or chitosan/alginate. The PEM depositited on the PMMA and PDMS substrates improved the organic solvent resistance with the best results obtained from the chitosan/alginate over the PDADMAC/PSS pair. The more hydrophilic character of the chitosan/alginate and the PDADMAC/PSS film caused a significant decreasing rate of organic solvent pentration into the PMMA substrate which retain transparent optical properties for up to 30 dipping in acetonitrile. A 20 layers chitosan alginate film also decreased PDMS substrate swelling when exposed to chloroform vapor. The PEMs coating could protect the PMMA and PDMS sample against organic solvent and vapor which could make them useful in microfluidic systems even in agressive environment.
► Polyelectrolyte multilayers built from chitosan/alginate and PSS/PDADMAC were deposited on PMMA.
► Both coating offer protection to the PMMA substrate against acetonitrile solvent attack.
► Chitosan/alginate showed the best resistance to acetonitrile.
► The substrate remained clear even after 20 min. of exposure when using chitosan/alginate coating.
