Abstract
An antiviral material is provided. The antiviral material includes a polymeric matrix and graphene particles dispersed in the polymeric matrix at a concentration of greater than or equal to about 0.05 wt. % to less than or equal to about 10 wt. % based on the total weight of the antiviral material, wherein the antiviral material exhibits antiviral activity. Methods of making the antiviral material and uses of the antiviral material are also provided.
