Disclosed is a method of preparing a modified halogenated polymer surface, comprising the steps of (a) activating the surface by modification with a polymerisation initiator by (a 1 ) reacting the halogenated polymer surface with sodium azide, subsequent (a 2 ) patterning the azidated surface via photolithographic patterning methods, and subsequent (a 3 ) 1, 3 dipolar cycloaddition with an alkine-functionalized initiator; and (b) reacting the activated surface obtained in steps (a 1 )-(a 3 ) with polymerizable monomeric units A and/or B. |
