Öğe Antimicrobial functionalization of poly(ethylene terephthalate) fabrics with waterborne N-halamine epoxides(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016) Çerkez, İdris; Koçer, Hasan Basri; Worley, S. D.; Broughton, R. M.; Huang, T. S.A water dispersible terpolymer of [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium chloride, glycidyl methacrylate and hydantoinyl acrylamide was synthesized and coated on poly(ethylene terephthalate) fabrics through a pad-dry-cure procedure. The coatings were rendered biocidal upon exposure to dilute household bleach solution. The halogenated fabrics exhibited great antimicrobial functionality with about six logs inactivation of S. aureus and E. coli O157: H7 within only two min of contact time. Moreover, the coatings were found to be very stable against repeated washings and UVA light exposure. It was shown that [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]-trimethylammonium monomer is very useful in preparing waterborne N-halamines which can impart rechargeable, effective, and stable antimicrobial coatings to poly(ethylene terephthalate) fabrics.

S.Anionic and cationic N-halamine polyelectrolytes were synthesized, characterized and then immobilized onto melt-blown polypropylene fabrics having two different basis-weights. The coatings were rendered biocidal upon exposure to dilute sodium hypochlorite solution. The effect of single and multilayer deposition of the polyelectrolytes on the surfaces was investigated in terms of chlorine loadings, rechargeabilities, antimicrobial efficacies, and air permeabilities. It was found that all of the coatings provided remarkable biocidal efficacies with about six log reductions of bacteria within two mm of contact time on filters having higher basis-weight, whereas slower inactivation was observed for lower-basis weight filters due to diminished surface areas and numbers of active halogen atoms. The antimicrobial coatings reduced the air permeabilities of the filters somewhat; however, the air permeabilities of the coated swatches were comparable to those of most protective textiles.

D.; Broughton, R. M.; Huang, T. S.N-(hydroxymethyl) acrylamide (NMA) was immobilized on cotton surfaces through etherification, and then methacrylamide (MA) was grafted onto the treated surface. The coatings were characterized by ATR-IR spectroscopy and were rendered biocidal upon exposure to dilute household bleach. The treated fabrics were challenged with Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria; both NMA and NMA/MA-treated fabrics inactivated about 8 logs of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Staphylococcus aureus within only 5 min of contact time. The coatings were also quite stable toward ultraviolet (UVA) light exposure and repeated laundering. Moreover, a substantial improvement in wrinkle recovery angle was obtained for the NMA/MA-treated fabrics. The new acyclic acrylamide N-halamine coating should be less expensive to produce and use than previous cyclic N-halamine coatings developed in these laboratories. (c) 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J.
