  • Shaving article with surface modification
    Patent number: 10751896
    Abstract: A method of making a shaving article comprising a substrate comprising stainless steel; and an external polymer coating comprising polymer brushes, the method comprising the steps of: providing said substrate; providing a initiating species comprising an anchor group that is chemically reactive with surface moieties on the substrate, and a polymerization initiator group; reacting said anchor group with said surface moieties of the substrate; providing monomers reactive for polymerization with the polymerization initiator; and polymerizing the monomers with the initiator group of the initiating species.
    Type: Grant

  • ARTICLE COMPRISING A POLYMER LAYER
    Publication number: 20180237615
    Abstract: There is provided an article comprising, a substrate having a charged surface; and a polymer layer on said substrate surface; wherein said polymer layer comprises, a crosslinked sublayer comprising charged moieties having a charge opposite to that of said charged surface; and a supra-layer comprising polymer chains grafted from the sublayer and extending away from said substrate surface. Preferably the polymer chains are polymer brushes.
