Claim 17:
18. A method for preparing antimicrobial sheets for manufacturing articles having antimicrobial properties, comprising the steps of:
providing a first metalized fabric including a first metal material, the first metal material including a first metal material surface area;
coating the first metalized fabric with first silicone to form a first silicone treated metalized fabric, wherein the coating of the first metalized fabric includes coating at least a portion of the first metal material surface area with the first silicone, and wherein the first silicone promotes bonding between the first silicone treated metalized fabric and a first sheet of uncured polymer;
providing a feedstock of solid uncured polymer and passing only the feedstock of solid uncured polymer between two rollers to form a first sheet of only uncured polymer;
bonding, using the first silicone and by calendering, the first silicone treated metalized fabric and the first sheet of only uncured polymer together to create an antimicrobial material sheet suitable for fabricating articles of manufacture having antimicrobial properties.
