Abstract
The purpose of this study is to present the poly(caprolactone) (PCL) functionalization by the covalent grafting of poly(sodium styrene sulfonate) on electrospun scaffolds using the "grafting from" technique and evaluate the effect of the coating and surface wettability on the biological response. The "grafting from" technique required energy (thermal or UV) to induce the decomposition of the PCL (hydro)peroxides and generate radicals able to...
