PPO-PEO-PPO used as macromolecular surface modifier to improve the surface hydrophilicity of Polypropylene. The result of ATR-FTIR and contact angles measurements indicated that pluronic could diffuse preferably onto the surface by the inducement of high energy interface and lower the water contact angle of polypropylene
