How do antimicrobials work?
Antimicrobial coatings work by making the surface of the coating not conducive to microbial germination and outgrowth. Compounds with known antimicrobial activity are imparted throughout the coating at a level dependent upon the chemistry used. There are several different chemistries available for use as antimicrobial agents. Each chemistry has a unique mode of antimicrobial activity.
