Patent ID: 7651760

Claim:
A coated surface, comprising a surface and a continuous conformal polymer coating, wherein said polymer coating was prepared from a mixture comprising a plurality of monomers represented by formula II: wherein, independently for each occurrence, R is -hydrogen, -halogen, -alkyl, -cycloalkyl, -heterocycloalkyl, -alkenyl, -cycloalkenyl, -heterocycloalkenyl, -alkynyl, -cyano, -aryl or -heteroaryl; R 1 is alkyl; X is —O—, —N(R)—, —C(═O)O—, —C(═O)N(R)—, —C(═O)—, —C(═NR)—, n is 0 to 10 inclusive; and m is 5 to 15 inclusive; said coated surface is a fiber mat comprising a plurality of polymer-coated fibers; said polymer-coated fibers comprises a polyhydroxyalkanoate; said polymer-coated fibers are polymer-coated electrospun fibers; and said fiber mat exhibits a water contact angle of above about 150 degrees.
