## Abstract In this communication, we introduce a facile and highly efficient approach for surface modification of polyurethane (PU). Double bonds were incorporated onto the PU surface using a unique monomer, methacryloyl isothiocyanate (MI). Several monomers, such as __N__‐isopropyl acrylamide (NI

## Abstract Three polyethylene oxide‐polyurethane‐polyethylene oxide (PEO‐PU‐PEO) block copolymers of variable PEO block size (MW 550, 2000, and 5000) were used to modify the surface of a conventional segmented polyurethane (PU) with the objective of inhibiting interactions with proteins. The surfa
## Abstract Surface modification of a segmented polyurethane was achieved by blending with novel PEO‐containing amphiphilic triblock copolymers (PEO‐polyurethane‐PEO). Three copolymers having different PEO MW (550, 2000, 5000) were used as surface modification additives. The protein resistance of t
## Abstract Three novel polyethylene oxide‐containing amphiphilic triblock copolymers (PEO‐PU‐PEO) with PEO MWs 550, 2000, and 5000, were blended with a segmented polyurethane (PU). It was expected that the block copolymers would act as surface modifiers to produce surfaces rich in PEO. The solid s
