Comparable Studies on Nanoscale Antibacterial Polymer Coatings Based on Different Coating Procedures

The antibacterial activity of different antibiotic and metal-free thin polymer coatings was investigated. The films comprised quaternary ammonium compounds (QAC) based on a vinyl benzyl chloride (VBC) building block. Two monomeric QAC of different alkyl chain lengths were prepared, and then polymeri...
