Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Excellent bio-inert properties of polymers are strongly related to aggregation states and dynamics of chains at the water interface. In this study, we prepared a series of well-defined polymer thin films and examined relationship between their structure and physical properties at the water interface, and blood-compatibility. First, a branched polymer grafted with hydrophilic polymer chains was successfully prepared. Its hydrophilic part was preferentially segregated at the outermost surface of the blend films with a linear polymer and effectively prevented protein adsorption on their surfaces. Furthermore, the cross-linked thin films of water-soluble polymers were prepared. The obtained films were thickened in water. The moduli of the hydrogel films near the water interfaces were greatly sensitive to the cross-linking density of the polymers. Diffuse interfaces of the polymer chains at the water interface made it possible to prevent the platelet adhesion on the films.
