  • Patent number: 4840851
    Abstract: A surface coated article comprising a substrate with a cured polyethylene oxide-based coating thereupon. The essential features of the article are that the coating essentially consists of polyethylene oxide chains, with one free end and one end that has been cross-linked to other chains via a special cross-linking agent, that the cross-linking has been performed by radiation, and that the substrate has been swollen prior to cross-linking. The article can be prepared by applying to the substrate a solution containing the polyethylene oxide, the cross-linking agent, a swelling solvent and optionally a radical initiator, evaporating the solvent and cross-linking the coating by radiation curing. A suitable coating composition comprises per mole of the polyethylene oxide, 0.1-10 moles of the cross-linking agent, 0-500 moles of the solvent and optionally 0.0001-0.5 moles of the radical initiator.The article is especially useful within the biomedical field.
