: Cell adhesion, proliferation, and their orientation on the surface of fluorinated polyimide, 6FDA‐6FAP, which was fabricated by curing treatment and the rubbing method, were investigated using a continuous cell line of human epithelial cells (adherent HeLa). The surface free energy of the fabricat...
