Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for producing a surface-functionalized molding (oF) having a functionalized surface (fO). In this process a surface (O) of a molding (F) is brought into contact with a dienophile-containing solution (dL). The surface (O) comprises a polyamide (P) which comprises furan units. These furan units are able to react with the at least one dienophile present in the dienophile-containing solution (dL) to give the surface-functionalized molding (oF) having the functionalized surface (fO).

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A process for producing a surface-functionalized molding (oF) having a functionalized surface (fO), comprising the steps of
i) providing a molding (F) having a surface ( 0 ) which comprises a polyamide (P), the polyamide (P) comprising diene units of the general formula (I)

in which
R 1 and R 2 independently of one another are selected from C 1 -C 10 alkanediyl,
ii) contacting the surface (O) of the molding (F) provided in step i) with a dienophile-containing solution (dL) which comprises at least one dienophile, the at least one dienophile comprising at least one dienophile unit which is reactive toward the diene units (I) present in the polyamide (P), to give the surface-functionalized molding (oF) having the functionalized surface (fO).

2. The process according to claim 1 , wherein in step ii) the at least one dienophile unit present in the at least one dienophile reacts with the diene units (I) present in polyamide (P) in a [4+2] cycloaddition to give the surface-functionalized molding (oF).

3. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the dienophile-containing solution (dL) comprises at least one solvent (LM).

4. The process according to claim 3 , wherein the at least one solvent (LM) is selected from the group consisting of acetone, acetonitrile, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, hexane, toluene, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride, chloroform, 1,2-dichlorobenzene, water, methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol.

5. The process according to claim 3 , wherein the dienophile-containing solution (dL) comprises in the range from 0 to 99.5 wt % of the at least one solvent (LM) and in the range from 0.5 to 100 wt % of the at least one dienophile, based in each case on the total weight of the dienophile-containing solution (dL).

6. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one dienophile unit present in the at least one dienophile is selected from the group consisting of C═C double bonds, C═O double bonds, and C═S double bonds.

7. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one dienophile present in the dienophile-containing solution (dL) comprises at least one structural unit selected from the group consisting of maleimides, benzophenone, acrylates, methacrylates, acrylonitriles, maleic acid, maleic anhydride, and maleic esters.

8. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one dienophile present in the dienophile-containing solution (dL) comprises exactly one dienophile unit.

9. The process according to claim 1 , wherein step ii) is carried out at a temperature in the range from 15 to 150° C.

10. The process according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one dienophile present in the dienophile-containing solution (dL) comprises at least one further functional unit.

11. The process according to claim 10 , wherein the at least one further functional unit is selected from the group consisting of anhydrides, imides, esters, carboxylic acids, amines, alcohols, thiols, and isocyanates.

12. The process according to claim 10 , wherein the following step is carried out subsequent to step ii):
iii) contacting the functionalized surface (fO) of the surface-functionalized molding (oF) obtained in step ii) with at least one functionalizing agent (FM) which comprises at least one reactive unit which is reactive toward the at least one further functional unit present in the at least one dienophile.

13. The process according to claim 12 , wherein the at least one reactive unit present in the at least one functionalizing agent (FM) is selected from the group consisting of amines, alcohols, thiols, isocyanates, carboxylic acids, and anhydrides.

14. A surface-functionalized molding (oF) obtainable by the process according to claim 1 .
