Abstract
Microorganisms attach on all kinds of surfaces, spreading pathogens that affect human health and alter the properties of products and of the surface itself. These issues motivated the design of a broad set of antimicrobial polymers that have great versatility to be chemically modified, processed, and mixed with other compounds. This review presents an overview of these different strategies, including antimicrobial-release systems and inherently antimicrobial polymers, alongside novel approaches such as smart materials and topographical effects. These polymers can be used in any application affected by microbes, from biomaterials and coatings to food packaging. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Materials Research, Volume 52 is July 2022. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.
期刊介绍：
The Annual Review of Materials Research, published since 1971, is a journal that covers significant developments in the field of materials research. It includes original methodologies, materials phenomena, material systems, and special keynote topics. The current volume of the journal has been converted from gated to open access through Annual Reviews' Subscribe to Open program, with all articles published under a CC BY license. The journal defines its scope as encompassing significant developments in materials science, including methodologies for studying materials and materials phenomena. It is indexed and abstracted in various databases, such as Scopus, Science Citation Index Expanded, Civil Engineering Abstracts, INSPEC, and Academic Search, among others.
