Antibacterial coatings based on sonochemically designed surface metal
nanofoams, 2011, CLG 984267
• General overview: Advances for a new generation of active metal surfaces with
feedback properties.
• Objectives: Technologies for fabrication of surface metal nanofoams for active
chemicals storage by “green” ultrasound irradiation with combination with self-
assembly complexation between biocide and polyelectrolyte in open/close states
and formation of surface nanoreservoirs capable of long-term storage and
controllable release of the entrapped antimicrobial agents which provide a basis for
novel CNBR decontamination coatings.
• Expected outcomes comprehensible to the non-expert: fabrication of
surface encapsulation systems capable of long-term storage and controllable
release of the entrapped antimicrobial agents which provide a basis for novel CNBR
decontamination coatings.
Project Description

inorganic / polymeric / biological
→ antifouling systems, new medical therapies for human transplants, stem-cell research
Understanding and controlling of sonochemical reaction at solid surfaces
→ boost fundamental research, control of nucleation
Nanoengineered Cavitation Interfaces
Bio-active Surface

What is special in sonochemistry?
High Energy
Fast
Localised
Sonoparameters → easy way to various structures
Red/Ox vis-à-vis reaction in liquid
Additive in liquid → single-step hybrids
