Abstract

A method has been developed for the modification of polymer materials of the FIBAN brand, which allows to immobilize up to 5.5% of peroxyacid functional groups on them without significant changes in their physical and mechanical properties. It has been shown that the concentration of active groups and the stability of the synthesized materials depend strongly on the nature of the polymer carrier. Method for chemical analysis of the concentration of immobilized peroxyacid groups have been proposed, and the features of the IR spectra of modified materials have been described. It has been proved that all synthesized materials exhibit pronounced antimicrobial activity. Such materials can be used for manufacturing goods with increased resistance to microbial colonization, including medical masks, respirator filters, wound dressings, etc.
