Modification of metal surfaces with phosphonic acids

Provided herein are methods and reagents for surface functionalization of metals, including platinum, gold, palladium, iridium, and rhodium. The methods and reagents provided herein use a phosphonic acid or phosphonate ester reagent as an attachment source for various functional groups, allowing the surface modification with desirable properties. The modified surfaces provided herein are useful in a variety of applications, including prevention of biofouling on metal surfaces. 本文提供了用于金属(包括铂、金、钯、铱和铑)表面官能化的方法和试剂。本文提供的方法和试剂使用膦酸或膦酸酯试剂作为各种官能团的附接源，从而允许该表面改性而具有期望的性质。本文提供的改性表面可用于各种应用，包括防止金属表面上的生物淤积。
