Stainless steel grafting of hyperbranched polymer brushes with an antibacterial activity: synthesis, characterization and properties (2009)

Ignatova, Milena, Voccia, Samuel, Gabriel, Sabine, Gilbert, Bernard, Cossement, Damien, Jérôme, Robert, ...

Two strategies were used for the preparation of hyperbranched polymer brushes with a high density of functional groups: (a) the cathodic electrografting of stainless steel by...

Design of antibacterial surfaces by a combination of electrochemistry and controlled radical polymerization (2006)

Voccia, Samuel, Ignatova, Miléna, Jérôme, Robert, Jérôme, Christine

In this paper we report a new method for the electrochemical deposition of a metal/polymer composite layer on a conducting substrate. The electrochemical solution is a mixture of an acrylate (ethyl...

Surface modification of metallic cardiovascular stents by strongly adhering aliphatic polyester coatings (2006)

Jérôme, Christine, Aqil, Abdelhafid, Voccia, Samuel, Labaye, David-Emmanuel, Maquet, Véronique, Gautier, Sandrine, ...

This article reports on a novel two-step strategy for the coating of cardiovascular stents by strongly adhering biocompatible and biodegradable aliphatic polyesters. First, a precoating of...

Electrografting of thin polymer films: Three strategies for the tailoring of functional adherent coatings (2006)

Voccia, Samuel, Gabriel, Sabine, Serwas, Harry, Jérôme, Robert, Jérôme, Christine

Cathodic electrografting is an efficient technique to impart adhesion to poly(meth)acrylate coatings onto inorganic conducting surfaces. Although this technique was restricted for many years to very...

Combination of electrografting and atom-transfer radical polymerization for making the stainless steel surface antibacterial and protein antiadhesive (2006)

Ignatova, Miléna, Voccia, Samuel, Gilbert, Bernard, Markova, Nadya, Cossement, Damien, Gouttebaron, Rachel, ...

A two-step "grafting from" method has been successfully carried out, which is based on the electrografting of polyacrylate chains containing an initiator for the atom transfer radical polymerization...

Sequential electrografting and ring opening metathesis polymerization: a strategy for the tailoring of conductive surfaces (2005)

Voccia, Samuel, Claes, Michael, Jérôme, Robert, Jérôme, Christine

An electrografting technique has been combined with ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP). Poly(allyl methacrylate) chains have been chemisorbed onto steel and carbon plates under an...

Synthesis of copolymer brushes endowed with adhesion to stainless steel surfaces and antibacterial properties by controlled nitroxide-mediated radical polymerization (2004)

Ignatova, Miléna, Voccia, Samuel, Gilbert, Bernard, Markova, Nadya, Mercuri, Paola Sandra, Galleni, Moreno, ...

Novel copolymer brushes have been synthesized by a two-step "grafting from" method that consists of the electrografting of poly(2-phenyl-2-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperidin-1-yloxy)-ethylacrylate) onto...

Preparation of poly(epsilon-caprolactone) brushes at the surface of conducting substrates (2004)

Voccia, Samuel, Bech, Loïc, Gilbert, Bernard, Jérôme, Robert, Jérôme, Christine

This paper reports on the preparation of polyester brushes at the surface of electrically conducting materials. A two-step strategy has been worked out that consists of the electropolymerization of...

Preparation of reactive surfaces by electrografting (2003)

Jérôme, Christine, Gabriel, Sabine, Voccia, Samuel, Detrembleur, Christophe, Ignatova, Miléna, Gouttebaron, Rachel, ...

The electrografting process has been applied to a new monomer in order to induce reactivity to the surface of various conducting substrates which are then appropriate for the anchoring of a large...

Polymer coating of steel by a combination of electrografting and atom-transfer radical polymerization (2003)
