Reactive and Functional Polymers, 2008 Novel N-halamine biocidal polymers were prepared by co-polymerizing a heterocyclic ring-based monomer with tolylene-2,6-diisocyanate and toluene-2,4-diisocyanate. The resulting polyurethanes were halogenated; chlorinated, brominated or iodinated. The rate of bacterial killing by the halogenated derivatives was determined both with and without halogen ...

Biocidal polymers active by contact. V. Synthesis of polysiloxanes with biocidal activity
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 2000 Polysiloxanes with 3-(alkyldimethylammonio)propyl pendant groups were synthesized by quaternization of n-octyldimethylamine or n-dodecyldimethylamine with linear polysiloxanes containing 3-chloropropyl groups and/or 3-bromopropyl groups attached to silicon atoms.
