PCT No. PCT/GB93/01195 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 3, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 3, 1995 PCT Filed Jun. 4, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/25587 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 23, 1993A process for the functionalisation of polymers is disclosed. Functionalisation takes place by reacting a polymer with a peroxidant, preferably, the peroxydisulphate or monosulphate or sodium or potassium in an aqueous medium. The hydroxylated polymer can then be reacted with other materials, including biomolecules. Using the method of the inventon, products eg. Catheters or oxygenators can be produced with improved properties hitherto unobtainable.
