Antimicrobial and Antiviral Materials: Polymers, Metals, Ceramics, and Applications
by Peerawatt Nunthavarawong, Sanjay Mavinkere Rangappa, Suchart Siengchin, Mathew Thoppil-Mathew
Description:
Emerging microbial and viral
infections are a serious challenge to health, safety, and economics
around the world. Antimicrobial and antiviral technologies are needed to
disrupt the progression and replication of bacteria and viruses and to
counter their rapidly evolving resistance. This book discusses recent
developments in materials science and engineering in combating
infectious diseases and explores advances in antimicrobial and antiviral
materials, including polymers, metals, and ceramics and their
applications in the fight against pathogens. Features • Covers
progress in biomimetic antimicrobial and antiviral materials and
antimicrobial/antiviral bulk materials and coatings • Describes modern
methods for disinfection of biomedical materials against microbial and
viral infection resistance, especially for depressing novel coronavirus
(COVID-19) • Details methods to improve material properties to have a
longer service life in combating infection • Emphasizes chemical,
physical, mechanical, tribological, and antimicrobial/antiviral
properties • Offers current and future applications of emerging
antimicrobial/antiviral technologies This book will be of interest to
materials researchers and industry professionals focusing on
antimicrobial and antiviral applications.
