Scheme 2

Oxidative polymerization of 2,7‐dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) leads to material‐independent nanothickness coating. The coated surface is further linked to metallization and immobilization. Innate physicochemical properties of poly(2,7‐DHN) give also rise to surface functionalization showing charge‐dependent sorption, radical scavenging and anti‐bacterial activity.
