摘要

A method of combating the growth of microbes on a surface of a handheld object, the method comprising: (a) contacting the surface with a composition comprising: (i) a polymer precursor compound; (ii) a cationic biocide; (iii) a hydrocarbyl-saccharide compound; (iv) and a compound of formula (I): (Formula (I)) or a derivative salt thereof; wherein L is a linking group; each of R1, R2 and R3 is independently selected from an optionally substituted alkyl, alkenyl, aryl or alkoxy group; R4 is oxygen or an optionally substituted alkyl, alkenyl or aryl group; each of R5 and R6 is an optionally substituted alkyl, alkenyl or aryl group; and n is 0 or 1; and (b) causing the composition to form a coating on the surface.
