ABSTRACT
The stability and grafting efficiency are important for polydopamine (pDA) coatings used as platforms for secondary grafting. In this work, polyethyleneimine (PEI) was co-deposited with dopamine on various materials (PP, PTFE and PVC), then immersed in a 1.0 M HCl solution or 1.0 M NaOH solution to investigate the detachment of the coatings using UV-vis spectroscopy, SEM, FTIR spectroscopy and XPS, and the effect of PEI molecular weight on the secondary grafting of heparin on the pDA/PEI coating was investigated through clotting time tests. The results showed that the detachment rates of the pDA/PEI coating (14.6%, 23.7%) co-deposited on PTFE in 1.0 M HCl or 1.0 M NaOH solutions were both lower than that of the pDA coating (35.0%, 74.6%), indicating that pDA/PEI coatings could better remain on substrates in a 1.0 M NaOH solution. Besides, pDA/PEI coatings on a PP membrane with both a higher deposition density and stability could be obtained when the mass ratio of DA/PEI was 2 1-1 1 and PEI molecular weight was 600 Da. After grafting heparin, it was found that the pDA/PEI coating with lower molecular weight (600 Da and 1800 Da) PEI could achieve a higher grafting density of heparin with a longer clotting time. Thus, the results provided better understanding about the stability of pDA/PEI coatings and efficiency of heparin grafting.
