Abstract
Copolymerization of N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAA) and p-acryloyloxiace tanilide (AOA) was carried out at different mole ratios of the monomer s to obtain copolymers of varying compositions. DMAA contents were ver y near to the corresponding monomer feed and varied between 0.20 and 0 .80. Investigation of the protein adsorption of these polymer surfaces showed that copolymers with higher DMAA content adsorbed more albumin than fibrinogen. The scanning electron micrographs of the polymer-coa ted coverslips after contact with blood showed an antithrombogenic beh aviour of these surfaces.
