The applications of nano-enabled materials are spread across a myriad of sectors, including energy, medicine, construction, automobile, and agriculture. Nanoscale materials often have novel and unique properties that could be harnessed to improve the protection of workers exposed to traditional risks, such as in intelligent textiles to improve personal protective equipment. The advancements in nanotechnology have brought about a new wave of research on “non-traditional” antimicrobial compounds. This research has led to the development of Antimicrobial Coatings (AMCs).
