Verfahren zur Modifikation einer Materialoberfläche

摘要

The invention relates to a process for coating a material surface, comprising the steps of:(a) providing a hydrophilic telomer of formulawherein the variables are as defined in the claims, and(b) covalently binding the hydrophilic telomer to the material surface.The coated articles that are obtainable by the process of the invention have desirable characteristics regarding adherence to the substrate, durability, hydrophilicity, wettability, biocompatibility and permeability and are thus useful for the manufacture of biomedical articles such as ophthalmic devices.
