Description

Polyhexamethylene biguanidine (also referred to as PHMB, polyhexanide or polihexanide) is a highly water soluble and hydrolytically stable polymeric material. PHMB shows activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and is widely used across several sectors, typically as the hydrochloride salt, in a variety of disinfectant solutions and antiseptics. The presence of multiple hydrogen bond and chelation sites within PHMB renders it of potential interest to those studying supramolecular chemical effects. PHMB is available also as 20% aqueous solution.
