Article Synopsis
- A new technique has been created to add antimicrobial properties to resin materials using silver nanoparticles.
- This process involves immersing the resin in a silver nitrate solution and exposing it to gamma rays or electron beams, which facilitates the chemical bonding of the nanoparticles to the resin's surface.
- Various types of resin, including acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene and polyethylene, can be treated this way, and even with a low amount of silver, the treated materials demonstrate significant antibacterial and antiviral effects.
