A hybrid coating is prepared on a glass surface by a sol− gel process using
tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and Q4N+− Si (OR) 3. Transparent coatings with smooth surfaces …

Organic–inorganic hybrid coatings containing quaternary ammonium salts (QAS) bonded to
the organic–inorganic network were prepared from tetraethoxysilane and triethoxysilane …

The antimicrobial compound dodecyl-di (aminoethyl)-glycine was immobilized in a silicon
oxide xerogel matrix and used for glass surface coating. Coated glasses were tested for …

The colonisation of clinical and industrial surfaces with microorganisms, including antibiotic-
resistant strains, has promoted increased research into the development of effective …

Silver-doped organic–inorganic hybrid coating solutions were prepared by incorporating
AgNO3 into organic–inorganic hybrid sols derived from methacryloxypropyl trimethoxysilane …

This study investigates the effect of surface immobilization on the bactericidal function of a
quaternary ammonium compound. Quaternary ammonium silane (QAS) coated planar …

Bacteria existing on the surfaces of various materials can be both a source of infection and
an obstacle to the proper functioning of structures. Increased resistance to colonization by …

In this work a novel antibacterial surface composed of an organic-inorganic hybrid matrix of
tetraorthosilicate and a polyelectrolyte is presented. A precursor solution of tetraethoxysilane …

The antimicrobial properties of silver and copper are well-established, especially when
metals are applied in the form of nanoparticles (NPs). Silver and copper NPs or colloids …

The preparation and the releasing behavior of modified silica coatings, containing
embedded biocides on textiles, were compared and assessed with regard to application …
