Abstract
Generally, polymer materials are not air-permeable and hydrophilic. In addition, they do not possess anti-fungal property. Hydrophilicity, air-permeability, and anti-fungal properties of new composites consisting of polymer, ceramic nanoparticles, and silver ion were investigated by contact angle measurements, air permeation time, and cell culture. The hydrophilic, air-permeable, and anti-fungal composites can be used in health care industry.
