Abstract:
A textile material is described to which one or more antimicrobial and/or hydrophilic and/or stain release agents are adhered. The agent(s) is/are adhered to the textile material in such a manner that they are not released from the textile even if the textile is wetted or washed, so that the textile is reusable. In example embodiments, where one or more antimicrobial agents are adhered to the textile, the textile can be used to sanitize a surface in a non-leaching manner, e.g. without a liquid sanitizer, both under wet and dry conditions. A method is also described of finishing a textile material by applying and binding antimicrobial and/or hydrophilic and/or stain release agents to the textile material so that the agents are essentially irreversibly adhered to the finished textile material.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of sanitizing a surface by wiping a textile material over the surface, wherein the textile material comprises one or more antimicrobial agents adhered to the textile material, the one or more antimicrobial agents comprising at least polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) or polyglucosamine (chitosan).
