Article Synopsis
- Paper products are highly vulnerable to microbial contamination, primarily from fungi, which can lead to damage and degradation.
- Traditional methods to kill microbes pose health risks, making it essential to find non-toxic alternatives that don't harm the paper itself while effectively inhibiting a broad range of fungi.
- The study introduces a polyborneolacrylate (PBA) coating that prevents fungal growth on paper at a low concentration, maintains the paper's quality, and is fast and affordable, making it a promising solution for paper protection.
