Surfaces with anionic block copolymers can inactivate different viruses within minutes by making the polymer-microbe interface very acidic. Such surfaces can continuously disinfect surfaces without ...

The ability to inactivate pathogens on contact by using inherently biocidal surfaces is at the core of some of the latest strategies for controlling the spread of harmful microorganisms in the ...

Researchers from North Carolina State University, Boston University, and Kraton Corporation have demonstrated a family of self-sterilizing polymers that are effective at inactivating coronaviruses, ...
