Upcycling of Expanded Polystyrene Waste into Multifunctional Antibacterial Platforms for Microbial Control
The study presents a novel approach to combat plastic waste contamination, using an N-halamine-modified hyper-cross-linked polystyrene (EPS-3TDETA-Cl) and gold nanorods. The multifunctional antibacterial platform, which exhibited synergistic performance against pathogenic bacteria, was developed using Escherichia coli as a model strain. The strategy offers a promising solution for recycling plastic waste and practical biomedical applications.
