Abstract

See full text

The invention provides a low-friction halogenated nano- or microparticulate coating and method for forming the coating on articles, such as implantable medical articles. The halogenated nano- or microparticles, desirably fabricated from PTFE, are present on the surface of the coating and covalently coupled to a coupling component, which facilitates formation of the coating. The coatings are biocompatible and can be formed on a selected portion of a medical device in a straightforward process. In some aspects the nano- or microparticulate coatings are formed on a system for the insertion of a medical device, wherein the system includes a catheter.
