A Nondestructive Surface Zwitterionization of Polydimethylsiloxane for the Improved Human Blood-inert Properties

Abstract: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is extensively used in the field of biomaterials. However, its hydrophobicity still limits its range of applications and makes it prone to biofouling. Various techniques are currently utilized to overcome this limitation, but most of them reduce some of the PDMS prime characteristics, such as its mechanical strength and optical transparency. In this work, we employed an original two-step coating process to bypass harsh treatments on PDMS like UV–ozone or plasma treatment. A pre-coat… Show more

“…PDMS has been widely used in the biomedical area for fabrication of devices such as catheters, pacemakers, and drainage implants. 49 However, the strong hydrophobic nature and high surface friction of PDMS implants may cause pain and unfeeling when coming in contact with tissues. This ultralow-friction PDA− PSBMA coating will dramatically improve the water affinity and reduce interface friction of PDMS devices.…”

“…Besides, zwitterionic compound like SBMA has good antifouling property and biocompatibility. When applied as a wound dressing, PSBMA would efficiently inhibit bacterial adhesion and lower the degree of activation of platelets. , The zwitterionic polyelectrolyte hydrogels with inherent adhesion and intrinsic antibacterial ability have great potentials for wound dressings and electronic skin.…”

“…Zwitterions have several applications in live cell imaging [54,55], antibacterial surfaces [56] and wound dressings [57], dental applications [58], separative membrane coatings [59], and most importantly blood purification [51]. Academic efforts over immobilization of ZWs on hemodialysis membranes have been reported over different membrane materials (cellulose acetate (CA) [60], poly(ether sulfone) (PES) [61][62][63], poly(sulfone) (PSF) [64], poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) [65], poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) [66], etc.) using various chemical immobilization approaches.…”
