Development of self-stratified antibacterial polymers via click chemistry

An azide-modified long perfluorinated tail quaternary ammonium methacrylate compound (M2) was designed and synthesized. The fluorine containing polyurethane (PU-F) with strong antibacterial properties was prepared click reaction of M2 and a clickable polymer (PU-Al), which exhibited surface segregat...

Description
Summary:An azide-modified long perfluorinated tail quaternary ammonium methacrylate compound (M2) was designed and synthesized. The fluorine containing polyurethane (PU-F) with strong antibacterial properties was prepared click reaction of M2 and a clickable polymer (PU-Al), which exhibited surface segregation. The PU-F film showed a total kill against both Gram-positive ( ) and Gram-negative ( ) at an M2 content around 1 wt%. A disk diffusion test confirmed that the ligation efficiency of the antibacterial agents and polymer chains click chemistry was excellent, and covalent conjugation of the QACs to the polymers prevented leaching.
