    摘要: The inventors of the present disclosure recognized that, surprisingly, the antimicrobial treatments used on cellulosic sponges do not work in hydrophilic polyurethane sponges. As such, the inventors of the present disclosure discovered a need for an antimicrobial treatment for use on hydrophilic polyurethane foam sponges. The present inventors invented one antimicrobial composition for use on hydrophilic polyurethane foam sponges including an acetate salt solution humectant. The present inventors invented another antimicrobial composition for use on hydrophilic polyurethane foam sponges including a non-halogen humectant comprising a salt solution having a pH between about 3 and 10 and a water activity of less than 0.9 at 25° C.

    摘要: A hydrophilic foam comprises a polymer formed from a betaine prepolymer that is a reaction product of a betaine of formula (I) with one or more polyether glycols and a polyfunctional isocyanate compound of formula (II), (I) wherein R1, R2, R3, and R4 are each hydrocarbon groups having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, A− is an anionic functional group, and X+ is a cationic atom, (II) wherein R5 is a linear or branched aliphatic hydrocarbon group having from 2 to 12 carbon atoms, or a 5- or 6-membered aliphatic or aromatic carbocyclic group having from 5 to 50 carbon atoms, and b is an integer having a value of 1, 2, or 3.
