To summarize, this project compares and contrasts the feasibility of anti-bacterial polymers and materials as ingredients to function like toner for laser copiers, led laser copiers.
 
Total Budget : USD$ 60 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total Completion days : 16 days approximately
 
Milestone 1 : &nbsp;USD$15 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Complete in 5 days or less
==================================
TO BEGIN QUALIFYING &nbsp;FOR THIS PROJECT, YOU MUST ANSWER 2 OF THE FOLLOWING 3 SCREENING QUESTIONS :
QUESTION 1 : &nbsp;G. A. T. C. comprises what well known molecule?
QUESTION 2 : &nbsp;&nbsp;?.02214086 × 1023 mol-1 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What number is ?
QUESTION 3 : &nbsp;EtOH is shorthand for what common chemical?
==================================
 
(1) Read about ordinary polymer toners for laser printers. &nbsp;Identify the key characteristics which enable them to function as toners for laser printers. &nbsp;I can provide you with full text information about toners and their characteristics, so you should not have to dig too deep to get the information. &nbsp;Write a simple memo or spreadsheet listing the primary characteristics which enable these polymers, mixtures of polymers, and additives to function as toners. &nbsp;(Note that we are not adding carbon black or other colored pigment to the mixture.) &nbsp;You will consider characteristics like melting point, glass transition temperature, melt viscostiy, dielectric constant, adhesion, and more.
 
(Complete milestone 1 before beginning Milestone 2).
 
Milestone 2 : Budget USD$15 &nbsp;Complete in 5 days or less
 
(2) Read about anti-infective (anti-bacterial) polymers and materials. &nbsp;Identify the key characteristics which enable them to function as anti-infectives. &nbsp;Here is an exemplary list of them. &nbsp;As you can see, many of these are cationic and some of them are anionic, which would obviously stress and ultimately deactivate a pathogen. &nbsp;&nbsp;You will need to dig really deep on the internet and the scientific literature to identify the characteristics of these polymers and materials with an emphasis on melting point, glass transition temperature, melt viscosity, dielectric constant, adhesion, and more. &nbsp;I realize that many of these characteristics will not be publicly available to us. &nbsp;Many of these materials are not thermoplastic. &nbsp;Some of them are thermoset. &nbsp;Some of them polymerize with catalysts. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Some of them would be mixed with ordinary toner plastics to obtain a suitable toner for a laser copier. &nbsp;&nbsp;Please consider other anti-infective polymers and materials not on this list. &nbsp;Write a simple memor or spreadsheet listing the primary characteristics which enable them to function as toners for laser printers and laser copiers.
 
polysulfates, polyphosphates, dextran sulfate, polyvinylalcohol sulfate,
 
naphthalene sulfonate, glutamine, fluctosan, polyethyleneimine, poly-Llysine, diethylaminoethyl-dextran, poly(amidoamine), dendrimers, and polyphenol ether.
 
Milestone 3 : &nbsp;Budget USD$15 &nbsp;Complete in 3 days or less
 
(3) Compare and contrast the common characteristics between polymers suitable as toners(Milestone 1) , and anti-infective polymers (Milestone 2), and infer and suggest some of the anti-infective polymers as likely being suitable as toners for laser printers. &nbsp;And as you and I both know, cationic and anionic polymers typically are thermosets, not thermoplastic, whereas with laser printers they are mostly thermoplastic. &nbsp;And as we both know, many polymers are mixtures, so your suggestions may be a mixture of relatively ordinary thermoplastic toner including a percentage of anti-infective polymer, which is a suitable recommendation from your side. &nbsp;You will write a simple memo or other spreadsheet with your suggestions. &nbsp;You may want to append your suggestions for Milestone 3 and write your suggestions into the same document you write for Milestone 2.
 
Milestone 4 : &nbsp;Budget $15 &nbsp;Complete in 3 days or less
 
(4) Once you and I agree upon the polymers to test, you will find industrial vendors of these anti-infective polymers which are possibly suitable as toner for laser printers. &nbsp;(I really do not want to use Aldrich or Fisher for samples). &nbsp;You will send me a simple list of these vendors, including their webpage hyperlinks.
 
Optional Milestone 5 :
 
(5) Some of these subtrates need specific tie layers, adhesive layers, to adhere the anti-infcective applique (heat transfer) to the specific surface of the object to have an anti microbial surface.&nbsp;

I need a chemist or materials science masters level to find the properties of anti microbials
