Antimicrobial surface functionalization of PVC by a guanidine based antimicrobial polymer
Materials Science and Engineering: C, 2016 Abstract Antimicrobial polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastic was obtained by covalent bonding of poly hexamethylenediamine guanidine hydrochloride (PHMG), a guanidine based antimicrobial polymer. This was achieved by grafting mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane onto PVC, followed by aminopropyltriethoxysilane.
