Despite the growth and application of sterilization procedures at hospitals and medical clinics, medical devices and implants are still the cause of millions of hospital-acquired bacterial infections each year. As such, the development of self-sterilizing materials has grown in recent years. The dangers associated with hospital-based bacterial infections are compounded by the increased occurrence of "super bugs", bacteria that have developed a resistance to many of our established antibacterial agents. In the past 25 years, oxazolidinones have emerged as one of the greatest and most promising new developments in the area of antibiotics. This proposal highlights a method to prepared a class of polyurethane materials that have the ability to degrade into oxazolidinone antibacterial molecules. The proposal focuses on the polymerization method and characterization of the resulting novel materials. In addition, the process also involves the incorporation of carbon dioxide as a molecular building block into the polymers framework. The ability to use waste carbon dioxide as a source of C in the preparation of materials is extremely exciting in the development of environmentally sustainable chemistry practices and has tremendous implications for our abilities to address global warming.

尽管医院和医疗诊所的灭菌程序的增长和应用，但医疗设备和植入物仍然是每年数百万医院获得的细菌感染的原因。因此，近年来，自杀材料的开发已经增长。与医院细菌感染相关的危险与“超级虫”的发生增加，这是对我们许多已建立的抗菌剂产生抗性的细菌。在过去的25年中，恶唑烷酮已成为抗生素领域中最伟大，最有希望的新发展之一。该建议突出了一种准备一类聚氨酯材料的方法，这些材料能够降解为恶唑烷酮抗菌分子。该提案的重点是聚合方法和所得新颖材料的表征。此外，该过程还涉及将二氧化碳作为分子构建块掺入聚合物框架中。在制备材料制备中，将废物二氧化碳用作C来源的能力在开发环境可持续的化学实践中非常令人兴奋，并且对我们解决全球变暖的能力具有巨大的影响。
