The present invention relates to a substrate, and a preparation method therefor and the use thereof. What is referred to as the substrate has a surface, the surface comprising a polymer coating covalently attached thereto. The polymer coating comprises a polymer comprising a repeating unit A as represented by formula I and a repeating unit B as represented by formula II or formula III:

##STR00001##

wherein X is selected from O or NH, R.sub.01, R.sub.01 and R.sub.01 or are each independently selected from H or a C1-C3 alkyl, R.sub.0 is selected from a C1-C10 alkyl or (C1-C5 alkyl)-NHNHS-PEG4, and R.sub.0 comprises at least one R.sub.02 substitution, at least one R.sub.02 substitution each independently selected from epoxy, amino, or azido, R.sub.03, R.sub.03, R.sub.03, R.sub.03, R.sub.04, R.sub.04, R.sub.04, R.sub.05, R.sub.05 and R.sub.05 are each independently selected from H, a C1-C3 alkyl, acylamino or ester group, L.sub.1 is selected from a C1-C3 alkylene or C(O)R.sub.06C(O), and R.sub.06 is selected from PEG or alkyldiamine. The surface can load biomolecules at a higher density, can meet the evolving developments in terms of biomolecular preparation and/or analysis requirements, and has a good stability.
