Abstract:
A new approach is presented to reduce encrustation of catheters by the application of nanoparticles. It is demonstrated that the negatively surface charged nanoparticles produce coating films comprised of long-range domains in which the nanoparticles are self-assembled into a mosaic-like order, showing a relatively small tendency to agglomerate.
