The data presented here constitute part of the results attained in the development of a research project funded by the European Community (EC) and performed in cooperation with three independent European companies [6]. Hybrid polymeric materials based on intimate blends of human serum albumin (HSA), alkyl hemiesters of alternating copolymers of maleic anhydride (MAn), and vinyl ethers of monomethoxyoligoethylene glycols (PEGVE) were selected as biocompatible matrices for the formulation of the nanoparticles. 

Polystyrene is one of the most widely used thermoplastic materials ranking behind polyolefins and PVC. Owing to their special property profile, styrene polymers are placed between commodity and speciality polymers. Since its commercial introduction in the 1930s until the present day, polystyrene has been subjected to numerous improvements. The main development directions were aimed at copolymerization of styrene with polar comonomers such as acrylonitrile, (meth)acrylates or maleic anhydride, at impact modification with different rubbers or styrene-butadiene block copolymers and at blending with other polymers such as polyphenylene ether (PPE) or polyolefins. 

Numerous nylon blends prepared by compatibilization or reactive blending are commercially successful. The modifiers fiequenfly utilized in commercial nylon blends include polyolefin, thermoplastic polyolefin, thermoplastic polyunethane, ionomer, elastomer, ethylene-propylene rubber, nitrile mbber, polyftetrafluoroethylene), poly (phenylene ether), poly(ether amide), silicone, glass fiber, and carbon fiber. The nonpolar modifiers such as polyolefin, maleic anhydride or a polar vinyl monomer such as acrylic acid, methaciylic acid and fimiaric acid is fiequently incorporated to introduce reactive sites in nylon. 

Mixtures of hydrocoUoidal gelling agents in an aqueous medium have also been employed as water-soluble or water-dispersible additives to provide gels having solids-suspending properties. Such mixtures include a mixture of hydroxypropyl-cellulose and poly(l-alkene-maleic anhydride) as poly(isobutylene-co-maleic anhydride), and a blend of hydroxypropylcellulose and poly(alkyl vinyl ether-co-maleic anhydride) as poly(methyl vinyl ether-co-maleic anhydride) [91].

Another route towards biomolecular functionalisation of switchable cell culture carriers was proposed by Gramm et al. (2011). The thermo-responsive polymer poly (vinyl methyl ether) was blended with a small amount of the alternating copolymer of vinyl methyl ether and maleic anhydride. After electron beam cross-linking, stable films with a dry thickness of up to 70 nm were obtained. The introduced anhydride moieties allow for subsequent protein or peptide immobilization without toxic coupling agents. This concept was applied and further developed by Teich-mann et al. (2013). The impact of different adhesion-promoting molecules immobilised in different concentrations to the thermo-responsive coating was evaluated and compared.
