Novel quaternary pyridinium‐type porous aromatic frameworks , PAF‐50, and their composites, AgCl‐PAF‐50, have been synthesized to effectively and efficiently inhibit the growth of bacteria. Most importantly, both PAF‐50 and AgCl‐PAF‐50 have excellent compatibility with conventional polymers, which lead to great operation flexibility and versatility for antibactrial coatings on various medical devices simply via solution or spray coating.
