Light-Activated, Bioadhesive, Poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) Brush Coatings

Dominique Pioletti, Harm-Anton Klok, Peyman Karami, Jian Wang, Nariye Cavusoglu Ataman

Rapid adhesion between tissue and synthetic materials is relevant to accelerate wound healing and to facilitate the integration of implantable medical devices. Most frequently, tissue adhesives are applied as a gel or a liquid formulation. This manuscript ...

Degrafting of Poly(poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) Brushes from Planar and Spherical Silicon Substrates

Harm-Anton Klok, Nariye Cavusoglu Ataman

Densely grafted, hydrophilic polymer brushes produced via surface-initiated controlled radical polymerization have been shown to undergo degrafting upon exposure to aqueous media. This degrafting process has been proposed to involve swelling-induced, mecha ...
