Abstract
Specific features of the surface chemical structure of the nuclear membrane s based on polyethylenetherephtalate are discussed. The AFM and XPS were us ed as the tools. A considerable quantity of hydroxyls and carboxyls was fou nd to be present on the surface of the membranes. A combination of the AFM and chemical. derivatization technique (CDT) were used to make an attempt o f determining the local distribution of functional groups along the membran e surface.
