Abstract

The invention is directed to an antimicrobial polymer that can preferably be processed thermoplastically, a method for the preparation of said antimicrobial polymer and its use in antimicrobial treatment. The invention is further directed to polymer blends containing antimicrobial polymers and the use of special monomers in the preparation of antimicrobial polymers that can be processed thermoplastically.
