Disclosed are latexes, suspensions, and colloids having a cationic antimicrobial compound complexed with an anionic surfactant. The surfactant may have greater affinity for the antimicrobial compound than other anionic surfactants and other anions in the latex, suspension, or colloid that contribute to disperse phase stability to prevent disrupting the dispersions. Dispersions containing the antimicrobial compound may therefore have a shelf life comparable to dispersions that are otherwise identical but lack the cationic antimicrobial compound and its complexed anionic surfactant. Coatings made with the complexes can exhibit essentially undiminished antimicrobial activity.
公开了具有阳离子抗菌化合物与阴离子表面活性剂复合物的胶乳、悬浮液和胶体。与
其他阴离子表面活性剂和胶乳、悬浮液或胶体中的其他阴离子相比,表面活性剂对抗菌化合物的亲和力可能更大,这有助于提高分散相的稳定性,从而防止破坏分散体。因此,含有抗菌化合物的分散体的保质期可与其他相同但缺少阳离子抗菌化合物及其络合阴离子表面活性剂的分散体相媲美。使用络合物制成的涂料基本上不会降低抗菌活性。
