Polymer coating with antimicrobial materials and methods for producing
Abstract:
A method for producing an antimicrobial coating on a surface. The method includes mixing a parylene dimer and an antimicrobial agent to form a mixture, heating the mixture to sublimate the parylene dimer and suspend the antimicrobial agent within the sublimated parylene dimer, pyrolyzing the sublimated parylene dimer to form a parylene monomer while the antimicrobial agent is suspended within the parylene monomer, and condensing the parylene monomer and the antimicrobial agent together on the surface to polymerize the parylene monomer and form a coating containing a parylene polymer and the antimicrobial agent.
