| Research Abstract |
A series of new amphiphilic block copolymers composed of water-soluble polymethacrylate and hydrophobic polystyrene was synthesized by the living anionic polymerization. Novel polymer surface showing hydrophilicity, reactivity, and biocompatibility was obtained by casting the block copolymer solution. The hydrophobic alkyl terminal groups in the side chains of polymethacrylate played important roles to achieve the surface segregation of water-soluble polymethacrylate segments.
