Antimicrobial Acrylic Fiber

摘要

Low molecular weight poly(styrenehydantoin) (PSH) was prepared from polystyrene polymer. PSH was dissolved in dimethylacetamide (DMAc) after which poly(acrylonitrile) (PAN) was added to the solution. Fibers were extruded by dry-jet wet spinning. The mechanical properties of the PSH/PAN blended fibers are presented. Biocidal efficacy and chloramine stability data are also discussed.
