    摘要: A method of producing a metallized polymeric foam that produces an anti-microbial material using an advanced method of metallizing polymeric foam with a metal, such as silver. The foam material may be polyurethane, polyester, polyether, or a combination thereof. The method provides a 3-dimensional surface coating of the metal. The metallized substrate is durable and highly adherent. Such metallized foam is a highly effective filter and/or an anti-microbial product. The mechanism of filtration is mainly due to Vander Der Wal attraction. The anti-microbial activity may be due, in part, to the release of select metal ions as a response to stimuli.

    摘要: A compression stretch bandage formed from at least one layer of a stretchable, textile material forming a body of the bandage, a base material attached to the stretchable, textile material on a first side, and a silver material attached to the base material for reducing risk of infection. The bandage may be a flexible, stretchable, hydrophilic bandage that reduce the risk of infection at a wound by providing a moist environment that will aid in optimum release of silver ions into the wound.

    摘要: A flexible electrical circuit formed from a flexible fabric of a nonconductive material that forms a sheet and one or more conductive circuits attached to the fabric and formed at least partially from silver. The conductive circuits may be formed from at least one conductive fiber formed from a core coated with a coating at least partially formed from silver, wherein the core is formed at least partially from nylon. In at least one embodiment, the outer coating may have a silver content of more than 95 percent. The fiber may be patterned stitched, plied multiple times, or attached in other manners to change the resistance. In another embodiment, the conductive circuits may be formed from an etched silver layer attached to the flexible fabric. The conductive circuits may be used in many applications, such as, but not limited to forming heaters, sensors, antennas, stretchable fabrics, and in other applications.

    摘要: A fiber having insect repellant capabilities. The fiber includes an insect repellant and another material capable of eliminating odor, such as human body odor. In one embodiment, the material capable of eliminating odor is silver. Other materials may include, carbon, copper, a ceramic, or a combination thereof. The insect repellant and the material capable of eliminating odor are added to the fiber in amounts effective to eliminate or substantially reduce odor, thereby helping to prevent insects from locating an individual. The insect repellant is added in an amount to be effective at repelling insects that do locate the individual. The fiber may be used in any type of fabric, cloth, garment or other article.

    摘要: A method of making a hydrogel having antimicrobial properties. The hydrogel includes a hydrogel-forming polymer and an anti-microbial agent. The method includes mixing a hydrogel-forming polymer, such as a hydrophilic polymer, with water and cross-linking the polymer and water using an energy source. The method does not require any chemical additive to affect the cross-linking. The anti-microbial agent may be mixed with the hydrogel-forming polymer and water prior to cross-linking. Alternatively, the anti-microbial agent may be applied to a substrate onto which the hydrogel is placed such that the anti-microbial agent or the properties of the agent, or both, migrate into the hydrogel. The substrate may be a liner onto which the hydrogel is placed, a scrim located on or in the hydrogel, or other appropriate device.
