The surface energetics, specifically the balance of polar/nonpolar forces on the interfaces of various amphiphilic networks comprising hydroxyethyl methacrylate or N,N-dimethylacrylamide hydrophilic chains linked by polyisobutylene hydrophobic chains (for brevity H and A networks) in contact with water have been studied by dynamic contact angle measurements. Both networks show large contact-angle hysteresis due to surface heterogenity and surface rearrangements. The balance of the polar/nonpolar forces of the dry networks is much below unity
