42. We note that some reports describe contact angles measured on surfaces while they were held at temperatures that may allow simultaneously reconstruction at both the polymer/ water and polymer/air interfaces, thus adding complexity to interpretations regarding composition near the three-phase contact line.
43. We use enthalpy, instead of internal energy, to acknowledge the energetic contribution from small changes in volume upon extension. For the interfacial analogue, this choice is convenient because we consider the polymer/water interface as an interphase with a small, but finite, volume and hence discuss changes in Gibbs (rather than Helmholtz) free energy.

58. The solvent used in these steps (diethyl ether) probably swelled, and as a result led to significant reconstruction of, the interfacial region of PBD-ox. Hence, we report these derivatizations only as a means of characterizing the reactivity of the interfacial region of PBD-ox and not as a means to produce functional surfaces. Infrared spectra of PBD-ox after treatment with aqueous base were inconclusive.
