Abstract

To give antibacterial properties to ABS-based composite materials, oligoethylene ester of salicylic acid in an amount of 0.5 – 1.0 % was used as additive. It was found that additive practically do not affect the physicomechanical properties of composite materials, but lead to a relative improvement in thermophysical parameters and the appearance of antibacterial properties in them. The antibacterial properties were studied and the possibilities of application of the obtained composite materials were determined. Micromycetes such as Aspergillus niger, A.ochraseus, Penicillium cuclopium, Cladosporium herbarium, Fusarium moniliforme and F.oxysporium were used as a test culture. It was found that the studied composite materials have both bactericidal and fungicidal properties. The fungicidal properties of the obtained new antibacterial composite materials allow their use in the manufacture of products resistant to fungal influence.
