Recently a variety of technologies have been proposed for improving surface properties of poly-
mers. Among them is surface grafting of polymers. Although this is a rather new technology,
polymer surface grafting offers versatile means for providing existing polymers with new
functionalities such as hydrophilicity, adhesion, patibility, conductivity, anti-fogging,
anti-fouling, and lubrication. This review article describes various methods of grafting and
grafted surface characterizations. Medical and non-medical applications connected with this
polymer surface grafting are also presented referring to recent publications.
Keywords: Surface modification, Graft polymerization, Graft chain, Adhesion, Surface charac-
