Abstract

Articles can be provided with odor resistance by applying a dispersion of a halogenated heterocyclic N-halamine in an inert liquid carrier onto the surface of the article and allowing the inert liquid carrier to penetrate into it. The N-halamine accordingly becomes deposited on the surface of the article after the inert liquid carrier penetrates into the article. This method can be used to provide odor resistance to a variety of substrates, including garbage bags. It can also be used to deposit other functional particulates onto the surface of substrates having sufficient porosity to take up the vehicle. For instance, such functional particles can be oxidants that display antimicrobial and/or enzyme inhibitory efficacy or particles having toxin interaction potentials through oxidative degradation or adsorption of toxic substances in air and/or water, such as fluoride uptake by metal oxide microparticles.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method of manufacturing an odor resistant plastic film which comprises applying a dispersion of a halogenated heterocyclic N-halamine in the form of particles in an inert liquid carrier to the surface of the thermoplastic film and allowing the inert liquid carrier to penetrate into the plastic film and leaving a coating of halogenated heterocyclic N-halamine particles on the surface of the thermoplastic film, wherein:
the inert liquid carrier does not react with halogen atoms in the halogenated heterocyclic N-halamine,
the halogenated heterocyclic N-halamine is insoluble in the inert liquid carrier; and
the particles of halogenated heterocyclic N-halamine are present only on the surface of the plastic film.

2. The method of manufacturing an odor resistant plastic film as specified in claim 1 wherein applying the dispersion of the halogenated heterocyclic N-halamine in the form of particles in the inert liquid carrier to the surface of the thermoplastic film comprises spraying the dispersion onto the surface of the thermoplastic film.

3. The method of manufacturing an odor resistant plastic film as specified in claim 2 wherein the plastic film is a polyolefin film, wherein the partially halogenated hydantoin in the inert liquid carrier is sprayed onto the plastic film, and wherein the thermoplastic film is in the form of a garbage bag.

4. The odor resistant thermoplastic film made by the process of claim 1 .

5. The method of manufacturing an odor resistant plastic film as specified in claim 1 wherein the halogenated heterocyclic N-halamine is a partially halogenated hydantoin of the structural formula:

6. The method of manufacturing an odor resistant plastic film as specified in claim 1 wherein the partially halogenated hydantoin is monochloro-5,5-dimethyl hydantoin.

7. The method of manufacturing an odor resistant plastic film as specified in claim 1 wherein the halogenated heterocyclic N-halamine is insoluble in the inert liquid carrier.

8. The method of manufacturing an odor resistant plastic film as specified in claim 1 wherein the inert liquid carrier is a vegetable based ester.
