Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-grafted Sephadex (TM) derivatives were prepared by a covalent amine conjugation method and characterized using XPS. PEG-grafting kinetics were studied using both Langmuir and Langmuir-Freundlich isotherm models by correlating fractional C-O intensities obtained from high-resolution C 1s scans with the grafting period. Theoretical values were compared with experimental results to confirm the reliability of the modeling predictions. Detailed surface characterization of PEG-grafted Sephadex derivatives was performed using XPS data, and the results were used to predict the interaction free energy and stick force exerted at the matrix interface.
