Supercritical CO2 Sorption Within Polymers Used in Medical Devices and Their Packaging

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 4, January 20, 2026.
In situ CO2 sorption monitoring ensured the establishment of thermodynamic equilibrium in polymers used for medical devices and their packaging. All the studied polymers, except PETG, exhibited similar kinetic profiles, allowing the quantification of CO2 sorption and the resulting polymer swelling under thermodynamic equilibrium conditions. For PETG, a

Biocidal polymers (II): Determination of biological activity of novel N-halamine biocidal polymers and evaluation for use in water filters

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 ...

The Role of Residual Hydrogen Peroxide for Biological Applications of Polymeric N‐Oxides

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 384-394, 15 January 2026.
Polymeric N‐oxides bind hydrogen peroxide with very high affinity. Therefore, residues of the oxidizing agent are difficult to remove from the polymers. This study shows that microbiological studies of polymeric N‐oxides can be compromised by these residues. Conflicting data on the antimicrobial properties of polymeric N‐oxides are therefore likely due

CVD elaboration of nanostructured TiO2-Ag thin films with efficient antibacterial properties [PDF]

, 2010
Nanostructured TiO2-Ag composite coatings are deposited by direct liquid injection metal-organic (DLI-MO) CVD at 683K in a one-step process. Silver pivalate (AgPiv) and titanium tetra-iso-propoxide (TTIP) are used as Ag and Ti molecular precursors ...

Biocidal activity of ROMP- polymer coatings containing quaternary phosphonium groups

Progress in Organic Coatings, 2019
Abstract Bacterial surface contamination is considered as one of the main causes of secondary infection. Herein, cationic polymers containing alkyl or aromatic quaternary phosphonium groups were synthesized via ring opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) and successfully deposited onto a glass surface via a spin coating or dip coating process in an

Perspectives on polymeric nanostructures for the therapeutic application of antimicrobial peptides [PDF]

, 2016
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a class of promising anti-infective molecules but their therapeutic application is opposed by their poor bioavailability, susceptibility to protease degradation and potential toxicity.

Morphology of Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Domains are the Key to Improve Fouling Release of Polyurethane Coatings

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 1, January 2026.
Marine biofouling is strongly decreased by polarity gradients of two‐phase coatings which in addition show a distinct topography and wrinkled surface microstructures with stiff gradients. These material properties collectively reduce the adhesion strength, debase settlement dynamics and ultimately improve the overall fouling release performance of ...
