ACYCLIC N-HALAMINES IN ANTIBACTERIAL MATERIALS
The present invention provides biocidal polymers having N-halamine technology incorporated therein, which are useful for a wide range of applications. The microbiocidal polymer can be a homopolymer, a co-polymer or a grafted polymer. In certain aspects, the present invention provides polymers from acrylic amine-monomers such as acrylamide, which monomers readily form homopolymers, co-polymers, or a grafted polymer such as onto an existing textiles.
