IMPROVED ANTIMICROBIAL EFFECTS IN POLYMERS

摘要

This application is directed to compositions of particular combinations of antimicrobial components which may be incorporated into a polymeric molding compositions or polymeric coating compositions. The antimicrobial components include a alkylaminoalkyl(meth)acrylate polymer (b) and antimicrobial metal (a) containing components which lead to improved antimicrobial effects. The compositions are of special interest to durable touch surfaces found in hospitals and clinics. The compositions are also suitable for use in biomaterials such as catheters and the like.
