Hemocompatible polyurethane surfaces
Abstract
With the aim of improving the hemocompatibility of blood‐contacting devices, antithrombotic or fibrinolytic biological molecules‐containing polyurethane (PU) materials have been developed. Cationic PU surfaces were prepared by grafting poly(dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) and quaternizing the tertiary amino groups with iodomethane. The surfaces were characterized by water contact angles and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The materials …
