This report describes a template-mediated self-assembly synthesis, full characterization, and structural features of two new silver-based bioactive coordination polymers (CPs) as well their immobilization into acrylated epoxidized soybean oil (ESOA) biopolymer films for antimicrobial applications. The 3D silver(I) CPs [Ag4(8-H2pma)2]n·4nH2O (1) and [Ag5(6-H0.5tma)2(H2O)4]n·2nH2O (2) were generated from AgNO3 an...
