The interfacial dynamics of the segment of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) terminated with elemental blocks containing polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS), namely PPMP (PMAPOSS-b-PMMA-b-PMAPOSS), was much slower than that of the conventional PMMA. The number of platelets adhered to the PPMP film was dependent on the pre-immersion time in phosphate-buffered saline before the platelet seeding, and these results could be explained in terms of the aggregation states of water at the interface.
