## Abstract PolyβLβlactide (PLLA) has been used to prepare scaffolds to guide tissue regeneration in tissue engineering research. However, one of the limitations to the use of PLLA as an ideal biomaterial is its high hydrophobicity. To improve the hydrophilicity of PLLA, hydrophilic polymers were g
Poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) sheet was modified with the remote hydrogen plasma, and the effect of the modification on adhesion between the PTFE sheet and copper metal was investigated. The remote hydrogen plasma was able to make PTFE surfaces hydrophilic without etching. In the modification pro
## Abstract The purpose of this study was to enhance blood compatibility of polyethylene (PE) films. Glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) was grafted onto the surface of PE by Ar plasma pretreatment and UVβinduced graft polymerization without photoβinitiator, then heparin was immobilized onto the poly (glyc
