Abstract: A surface-modified polymer is described, comprising a polymeric material and a self-assembling monolayer covalently bound thereto. The monolayer comprises monoethylene glycolated-OH (MEG-OH); 2-(3-trichlorosilyl-propyloxy)-ethyl-trifluoroacetate (7-OEG or MEG-TFA); 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl-13-trichlorosilyl-tridecanoate (TTTA); OEGylated TTTA (OEG-TTTA); S-(2-(2-(2-(3-trichlorosilyl-propyloxy)-ethoxy)-ethoxy)-ethyl)-benzenethiosulfonate (OEG-TUBTS); or a combination thereof. Methods are described for forming a surface-modified polymer by surface activation, such as with plasma. By utilizing the surface-modified polymer to make medical equipment or devices for contacting biological fluids, a reduction in surface fouling and thrombus formation can result. Advantageously, polymeric equipment or components so modified may have a reduction in unwanted chemical interactions leading to fouling or clotting.
