Silicone rubber has extensive application in medical field due to its valuable properties such as no-toxic to human organism and good biocompatibility. Normally
silicone rubber used as medical materials must contact with human organism which makes the chance of invasion by bacteria and results in infection. So the silicone rubber must be antibacterial when used as medical materials. Antibacterial properties of silicone rubber could be achieved through bulk or surface modification. Investigation about antibacterial silicone rubber has become extraordinary attention by material scientists and doctors. In this paper
references about investigation of antibacterial silicone rubber are summarized. Method of the preparation of antibacterial silicone rubber and its antibacterial properties are reviewed. The merit and demerit of the preparation of antibacterial silicone rubber are also compared and investigate direction about the antibacterial silicone rubber used as medical materials are prospected.
