The presented article describes the method of synthesizing new ionic liquid based on a biguanide cation and a tiocyanate or benzoate anion with antimicrobial properties. The structure of obtained new ionic liquid was confirmed by infrared spectroscopy. Additionally, the article describes a simple method of producing an antibacterial textile materials and PE-based film with the addition of an ionic liquid.
