Abstract:Layered double hydroxides (LDH) containing immobilized rosmarinic acid or eugenol have been employed to functionalize polypropylene (PP) nonwoven fabric (NWF), commonly used to manufacture protective clothing such as surgical masks. Rosmarinic acid and eugenol have recognized biological activities, such as antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti‐inflammatory capabilities, and they have been employed in this work both as synthetic, commercial compounds and as raw mixtures extracted from agri‐food matrices.
