Most industrially applied polymer resins and composites have low surface free energy and
lack polar functional groups on their surface, resulting in inherently poor adhesion …

This review surveys methods for the fabrication, by plasma surface treatments or plasma
polymerization, of polymeric surfaces and thin plasma polymer coatings that contain reactive …

The presence of micro-and nanoplastics in the marine environment is raising strong
concerns since they can possibly have a negative impact on human health. In particular, the …

Biocompatibility is one of the most important characteristics of a biomedical polymer material
whose surface is required to interact with a biological system. Such interactions between …

Prosthetic vascular grafts do not mimic the antithrombogenic properties of native blood
vessels and therefore have higher rates of complications that involve thrombosis and …

Polymers have been widely used for biomedical purposes such as medical devices, tissue
