“…26 Ma et al applied the colloidal deposition method to fabricate PS@Cu NPs microspheres for antibacterial purposes, but some drawbacks were observed, including inadequate dispersion of Cu NPs on the microspheres surface and adhesion between the microspheres. 27 Mozafarjalali et al investigated the adsorption behavior of commercially purchased copper nanoparticles dispersed in water on large-sized (around 100 μm) polystyrene microplastic sheets. However, they did not analyze the effects of the characteristics of copper nanoparticles and polystyrene sheets on the adsorption.…”

“…An important role of polymers in the formation of metal nanoparticles lies in their ability to screen the resulting nanoparticles in the nanoscale state, prevent their aggregation, and ensure long-term stability of their properties. The effective uses of polymers as matrices stabilizing copper and copper oxide nanoparticles such as cellulose [ 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 ], chitosan [ 39 , 40 ], polystyrene, polyaniline, polybutylene, polyurethane, polyethylene glycol [ 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 ] have been reported. Another promising polymer for stabilizing nanoparticles is poly-N-vinylimidazole (PVI).…”

A new original copper nanocomposite based on poly-N-vinylimidazole was synthesized and characterized by a complex of modern physicochemical and biological methods. The low cytotoxicity of the copper nanocomposite in relation to the cultured hepatocyte cells was found. The possibility to involve the copper from the nanocomposite in the functioning of the copper-dependent enzyme systems was evaluated during the incubation of the hepatocyte culture with this nanocomposite introduced to the nutrient medium. The synthesized new water-soluble copper-containing nanocomposite is promising for biotechnological and biomedical research as a new non-toxic hydrophilic preparation that is allowed to regulate the work of key enzymes involved in energy metabolism and antioxidant protection as well as potentially serving as an additional source of copper.

Polymeric goods have been instrumental due to its versatility, properties like hygienic, lightweight, flexible, and highly durable and hence it accounts for the largest usage of applications worldwide in sectors like electrical, electronic, packaging, automotive, energy generation, furniture, marine, aerospace, military, consumer goods, construction, medical and healthcare, and so forth. However, as the demand for consumer goods continues to grow-from smartphones, smart watches to automobiles, home appliances, food packaging, pharmacy, and so forth; disease transmission (especially during the outbreak of epidemic/pandemic) via tangibility has emerged as a major hurdle to cater the out breaking microbial transmission through touch. The surfaces of these goods/products are required to suffice antimicrobial properties to prevent such contagious surface transmission. Considering the current challenges and need for antimicrobial polymer, a review is presented to collectively enlist the theoretical fundamental; commercial, R&D activities, economic performance, and challenges on large-scale practice of antimicrobial polymeric products. The review also enumerates the potential antimicrobial nanofillers used for the fabrication of polymer nanocomposites with biostatic and biocidal properties along with expected property enhancement.
