surface grafting

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.ST07152
Process in which a polymer surface is chemically modified by grafting or by the generation of active sites that can lead to the initiation of a graft polymerization.
Note: Peroxidation, ozonolysis, high-energy irradiation, and plasma etching are methods of generating active sites on a polymer surface.
