The object of the present invention is a polymer material with reactive sites which is insoluble particularly in aqueous media, characterised in that it consists of a chemically inert polymer which is insoluble particularly in aqueous media and sufficiently reticulated to be usable in a defined configuration such as a membrane or tube configuration, and onto this polymer is grafted a monomer having at least one carboxyl group and/or a polymer of this monomer, all or part of the carboxyl groups of this insoluble and grafted reticulated polymer being converted into condensed groups which are more reactive than the corresponding carboxyl groups. It also relates to a method of preparing this material and to applications thereof.
Method of preparing a polymer substance which is insoluble in aqueous media and bears substrates having nucleophilic properties, ion exchange properties, catalytic properties or biological properties characterized in that it comprises causing one or more difunctional substrates bearing on the one hand a reactive function and on the other hand a nucleophilic group or groups or having ion exchange properties, catalytic properties or biological properties to react with the reactive sites of a polymer material which is insoluble in aqueous media and comprises a chemically inert polymer selected from polyolefins, copolyolefins, polyamides, copolyamides and fluorinated polyolefins, wherein said polymer is insoluble in aqueous media, and sufficiently reticulated to be usable in a defined configuration, said chemically inert polymer having grafted thereon a monomer having one or more carboxyl groups and/or a polymer of said monomer, at least a portion of said carboxyl groups having been chemically reacted to form one or more condensed groups selected from an acid anhydride group, an active ester group and an active thioester group, said substrates being selected from mono- and diamines, amino acids, polypeptides, proteins and enzymes.
