Certain antibacterial agents, specifically chitosan- or chitin-based polymers, exhibit increased antimicrobial activity when coated on the surface of hydrophobic materials such as polypropylene. For example, when applied to the surface of a polypropylene nonwoven, the resulting material can be used in diapers to reduce odor and promote skin health.n n n Antibacterial, Chitosan- or Chitin-Based Polymers |
