Abstract:
An ultraviolet photopolymerizable composition for soft tissue attachment includes trimethylolpropane tris(3-mercaptopropionate) (TMTMP), a photoinitiator, a solvent, and one or more of trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TMPTMA), pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA), dopamine methacrylamide (DMA), and n-phenethylmethacrylamide (PEMAD). Coating a substrate with a polymeric coating includes contacting a substrate with the ultraviolet photopolymerizable and irradiating the composition with ultraviolet radiation to yield a polymeric coating on the substrate. Treating a substrate includes contacting the substrate with the composition and irradiating the composition with ultraviolet radiation to yield a polymeric coating on the substrate.
