Segmented polyurethanes (SPU) have been used as an important biomedical material
of which the hemocompatibility is determined mainly by the surface properties of the polymer. ESCA has. been used in the present study to characterize the surface composition of SPU samples with different degree of phase segregation. Our experimental results show that (1) the ratio of O/N on polymer-air interface is greater than that in the bulk
i. e.
more soft segment is found on the surface than in the bulk average; (2) the soft segment is more abundant on the surface for the sample with better phase segregation;(3)within about 50A thickness of the air facing side the composition variation of the sample with better phase segregation is greater than the sample with poor phase segregation.
