Abstract:
The disclosure is directed to a chemically strengthened glass having antimicrobial properties and to a method of making such glass. In particular, the disclosure is directed to a chemically strengthened glass with antimicrobial properties and with a low surface energy coating on the glass that does not interfere with the antimicrobial properties of the glass. The antimicrobial has an Ag ion concentration on the surface in the range of greater than zero to 0.047 μg/cm2. The glass has particular applications as antimicrobial shelving, table tops and other applications in hospitals, laboratories and other institutions handling biological substances, where color in the glass is not a consideration.

Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to an antimicrobial composite material, and more particularly to an antimicrobial composite material comprising particles having a metal or metal alloy core and a porous inorganic material shell, coatings including the antimicrobial composite material, and methods of making the same. In some embodiments, Cu—SiO2 core-shell particles are disclosed in which the Cu core provides antimicrobial activity and the porous SiO2 shell functions as a barrier for the Cu core, thus preventing the Cu core from being directly exposed to air or moisture.
