Abstract
This invention is an anti-microbial coating including an anti-microbial agent which has proven to be effective in preventing the growth of the test microorganisms. Special manufacturing steps were needed to uniformly add the anti-microbial agent to the coating. Preferably, dissolving anti-microbial agent in tributoxyethyl phosphate (TBEP) is the best way to get the agent into the coating. In another embodiment, the coating provides a continual, disinfecting action.
