The radical block copolymerization of 2,2,3,3,4,4,4-heptafluorobutyl acrylate (HFBA) with methyl methacrylate (MMA) at 65 °C under normal atmospheric conditions on the surface of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) tissue (Dacron), used for the production of vascular prostheses, was carried out. It was found that the copolymerization of HFBA and MMA in 10:1 ratio results in a superhydrophobic coating with a contact angle θ = 155°. The examination of the surface using scanning electron microscopy confirmed the presence of a highly structured fluoropolymer coating on a micro and nanoscale.
