An object of the present invention is to provide a method for modifying the surface of vulcanized rubber or thermoplastic elastomer, which can economically and advantageously impart various functions such as slidability and biocompatibility according to the application. The present invention relates to a surface modification method using vulcanized rubber or thermoplastic elastomer as a modification object, comprising the steps of forming a polymerization initiation point on the surface of the modification object, and using the polymerization initiation point as The starting point is step 2 of growing non-functional polymer chains by radically polymerizing non-functional monomers, and further, growing functional polymer chains by radically polymerizing functional monomers. |
