Abstract

The technique of fluorescence labelling has been applied for the determination of functional groups on plasma and chromic acid-modified polymer surfaces. Various fluorescence dyes were coupled to carboxyl, carbonyl, hydroxyl and amino groups. It was found that fluorescence labelling is a very sensitive tool for quantitative determination of the surface chemical structure of polymers.
