Poly(acrylonitrile-co-acrylic acid) (PANCAA) was synthesized and fabricated into nanofibrous membranes by an electrospinning technique. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that membranes composed of uniformly thin and smooth nanofibres were obtained under optimized processing parameters. Surface modification with chitosan on these nanofibrous membranes was accomplished by a coupling reaction between the carboxylic groups of PANCAA and the primary amino groups of chitosan. Fluorescent labelling, weight measurement, FT-IR/ATR spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to confirm the modification process and determine the immobilization degree of chitosan. Platelet adhesion experiments were further carried out to evaluate the hemocompatibility of the studied nanofibrous membranes. Preliminary results indicated that the immobilization of chitosan on the PANCAA nanofibrous membranes was favourable for platelet adhesion.

SummaryThe role of fibrinogen in mediating platelet adhesion to polymers exposed to blood plasma was studied by comparison of the effect of plasma dilution on fibrinogen adsorption and platelet adhesion, and by the use of coagulation factor deficient plasmas. Polyetherurethane substrates were first preadsorbed with dilute plasma, then contacted with washed platelets suspended in a modified, apyrase containing Tyrode’s buffer. Platelet adhesion was studied under static conditions in Multiwell dishes, and also under shearing conditions using a parallel plate perfusion chamber. Fibrinogen adsorption and platelet adhesion were measured using 125I radiolabeled baboon fibrinogen and min radiolabeled baboon platelets, respectively. Surfaces were characterized by electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA).When fibrinogen adsorption to Biomer was measured after 2 h contact with a series of dilute plasma solutions under static conditions, a peak in adsorption was observed from 0.26% plasma, i.e., adsorption was greater from 0.26% plasma than from either more or less dilute plasma. A peak in subsequent platelet adhesion to the plasma preadsorbed surfaces, measured after 2 h static incubation with washed platelets, was also observed but occurred on Biomer preadsorbed with 1.0% plasma.When fibrinogen adsorption was measured after 5 min contact under shearing conditions, the fibrinogen adsorption peak occurred on surfaces that had been exposed to 1.0% plasma. A peak in platelet adhesion to these preadsorbed surfaces, measured after 5 min contact with the platelet suspensions under shearing conditions, was observed on Biomer preadsorbed with 0.1% plasma. Shifts between the positions of the peaks in protein adsorption and platelet adhesion occurred on other polymers tested as well.Platelet adhesion was almost completely inhibited when baboon and human plasmas lacking fibrinogen (i. e., serum, heat defibrinogenated plasma, and congenitally afibrinogénémie plasma) were used. Platelet adhesion was restored to near normal when exogenous fibrinogen was added to fibrinogen deficient plasmas. Adhesion was also inhibited completely when a monoclonal antibody directed against the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa complex was added to the platelet suspension. Platelet adhesion to surfaces preadsorbed to von Willebrand factor deficient plasma was the same as to surfaces preadsorbed with normal plasma.While it appears that surface bound fibrinogen does mediate the initial attachment of platelets to Biomer, the observation that the fibrinogen adsorption and platelet adhesion maxima do not coincide exactly also suggests that the degree of subsequent platelet adhesion is dictated not only by the amount of surface bound fibrinogen but also by its conformation.

The surface modification of silica for epoxy molding compounds (EMC) was conducted by plasma polymerization using RF plasma (13.56MPa), and the modification factors such as plasma power, gas pressure and treatment time were investigated systematically in this paper. The monomers utilized for the plasma polymer coatings were pyrrole, 1,3-diaminopropane, acrylic acid and urea. The plasma polymerization coating of silica was characterized by FTIR, contact angle. Using the silica treated by plasma as filler, ortho-cresol novolac epoxy as main resin, novolac phenolic-formaldehyde resin as cross-linking agent and 2-methylmizole as curing accelerating agent, the EMCs used for the packaging of large-scale integrated circuits were prepared by high-speed pre-mixture and twin roller mixing technology. The results have shown that the surface of silica can be coated by plasma polymerization of pyrrole, 1,3-diaminopropane, acrylic acid and urea, and the comprehensive properties of EMC were improved.

The influence of the ultrasonic treatment of block copolymer solution on its solid-liquid interface behavior was investigated in detail. The surface modification of titanium dioxide nanoparticles in aqueous dispersions of specially tailor-made periodic acrylic acid/isobutylene copolymer by ultrasonic treatment was studied in order to get new approaches for the creation of hybrid composite materials or polymer coatings. The pigment surface modification by the above copolymer was comparatively investigated regarding conventional adsorption as contrasted to an ultrasonic treatment assisted procedure. The course and efficiency of the polymer adsorption onto the pigment surface were quantified by electrokinetic sonic amplitude measurements. The higher efficiency of the pigment surface coating by the copolymer as achieved by ultrasonic treatment in comparison to conventional adsorption is a consequence of ultrasonically induced pigment surface activation. Two perspective avenues of the utilization of the discovered effects for creation of organic-inorganic composite materials are anticipated: the nanoparticles could first be treated by ultrasound in the presence of polymers and so create a surface modifying coating and the second option is an entrainment of the nanoparticles into the monomer matrix which can be polymerized afterward yielding a polymer with immobilized nanoparticles.
