Front Cover : A mechanically robust and transparent N ‐halamine grafted PVA‐co‐PE film with high effective and renewable antimicrobial activity is fabricated by combining melt radical graft polymerization and reactive extrusion technique. The as‐prepared film can effectively offer 3‐5 logs CFU reduction against typical pathogenic bacterium Escherichia coli in a short contact time of 1 hour, even at high organism conditions.
