摘要:
THIS invention relates to a method of applying an antimicrobial surface coating to a substrate, and more particularly to a method of applying an antimicrobial surface coating to a polymeric substrate manufactured by way of additive manufacturing. The method includes the steps of providing a body to be coated, the body having a surface area and cold spraying an antimicrobial metal powder on at least part of the surface area of the body so as to form an antimicrobial coating on the body. The method is characterized in that the body is made from a polymeric material by way of an additive manufacturing process.
