Abstract
Provided are hydrophilic substrates provided with a hydrophilic polymer layer having controlled surface uniformity and irregularities, and methods for preparing the hydrophilic substrates. Included are hydrophilic substrates including a substrate having a surface containing at least one group represented by —N(R1)2 or —N(R2)3+ wherein each R1 or R2 is the same or different and represents a hydrogen atom or a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group optionally containing a hetero atom; and a hydrophilic polymer layer provided on the surface of the substrate.
Claims6
A hydrophilic substrate, comprising:
- a substrate having a surface containing at least one group represented by —N(R1)2 or —N(R2)3+ wherein each R1 or R2 is the same or different and represents a hydrogen atom or a substituted or unsubstituted hydrocarbon group optionally containing a hetero atom;
- and
- a hydrophilic polymer layer provided on the surface of the substrate,
- wherein the at least one group represented by —N(R1)2 or —N(R2)3+ is introduced by treating the surface of the substrate with a silane coupling agent containing the at least one group represented by —N(R1)2 or —N(R2)3+,
- wherein the silane coupling agent is at least one selected from the group consisting of compounds represented by the following formulas (1-2) and (1-3 )
- wherein in formula (1-2),
- R11 to R13 are the same or different and each represent a hydrogen atom or a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group optionally containing a hetero atom;
- R16 to R18 are the same or different and each represent a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group optionally containing a hetero atom;
- R19 represents a substituted or unsubstituted divalent hydrocarbon group optionally containing a hetero atom;
- and
- X represents a halogen;
- wherein in formula (1-3),
- R21 to R23 are the same or different and each represent a hydrogen atom or a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group optionally containing a hetero atom;
- R24 to R26 are the same or different and each represent a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group optionally containing a hetero atom;
- R27 to R30 each represent a substituted or unsubstituted divalent hydrocarbon group optionally containing a hetero atom;
- X represents a halogen;
- and
- n represents the number of repetitions;
- and
- wherein the substrate is at least one selected from the group consisting of glass, acrylic resins, cycloolefin resins, carbonate resins, styrene resins, polyester resins, and polydimethylsiloxanes.
