Abstract
Despite the existence and deployment of a range of antimicrobial/disinfectant/sterilization technologies and products, transmission of infectious diseases remains a significant problem worldwide, continuing to cause hundreds of millions of infections and millions of deaths every year of both human beings and animals. A field-deployable antimicrobial surface product assembly designed for gases or liquids including: a substrate configured as a tile or a mesh: an adhesion layer disposed on at least one surface of the substrate: a first material in contact with at least one surface of the adhesion layer, where the first material includes nanotubes and/or nanopores, where the nanotubes and/or nanopores are open on one end only; and a second material deposited on at least a majority of surfaces of the nanotubes and/or nanopores which includes at least one antimicrobial material, and where the second material inactivates biological microorganisms in gases and liquids upon physical contact.
