Nanoscale synthesis and mechanical behaviour of polymeric Cu–Ni nanocomposites for antimicrobial coating

The manuscript illustrates the advancement of polymeric Cu–Ni nanocomposite thin-film coating with enhanced mechanical and antimicrobial properties. In our work, Cu–Ni bimetallic nanoparticles were synthesized and uniformly embedded in a butyl acrylate-methyl methacrylate polymer matrix, forming a strong yet functional...
