Antimicrobial and Antifouling Effects of Petal‐Like Nanostructure by Evaporation‐Induced Self‐Assembly for Personal Protective Equipment (Small 14/2024)
Source abstract
Abstract
Petal-Like Nanostructures In article number 2306324, Jae Hee Jung, Dong Yun Choi, and co-workers present a facile method for evaporation-induced self-assembly, resulting in petal-like nanostructures on fabric. These nanostructures offer both superhydrophobic-driven antifouling and visible-light-driven antimicrobial activities for personal protective equipment. The combined effect leads to rapid and complete bacterial inactivation, highlighting its potential application in healthcare settings.
