To enhance the surface biocompatibility of poly-(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) (EVA) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE), carboxyl groups were introduced by ozone exposure. Type I collagen was immobilized onto the surface through polyion complexing. The carboxyl groups on the EVA were characterized by
