Frequently touched surfaces in the hospital environment act as a reservoir for the bacteria
responsible for healthcare-associated infections (HCAIs). In this study, graphene
nanosheets (GNS) were incorporated into a low-cost Zn coating using electrochemical co-
deposition (ECD) to prevent HCAIs. The effects of different concentrations of GNS in the
ECD bath (25 mg/L, 50 mg/L and 100 mg/L) were evaluated in detail for microstructural, tribo-
mechanical, surface wetting, anti-corrosion, and anti-bacterial features of coatings. The …
