Cover: The Figure shows the X‐ray photoelectron spectra of the nitrogen 1s core levels and the near edge X‐ray fine structure nitrogen K edge of plasma polymers and plasma co‐polymers prepared from allylamine and mixtures of acrylic acid and allylamine. Molecular models of allylamine, acrylic acid and allylammonium acrylate salt are shown to illustrate the chemistry. This is shown on a background of a micrograph of melanocytes cultured on a plasma polymer coating. The micrograph has been artificially colourised.
