Abstract

Silver containing nanocomposites receive increasing attention as antibacterial coatings. In this study we report on production of such materials using combination of gas aggregation sources of Ag nanoparticles and plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition performed in HMDSO/O2 working gas mixtures.

The main attention is devoted to the investigation of solubility of Ag nanoparticles in water in dependence on the properties of matrix material and determination of antibacterial properties of produced films.
