Abstract: An abrasion resistant biocidal composition is disclosed. The composition includes at least one biocidal quaternary ammonium compound, a polymeric component comprising at least one selected film-forming polymer, and at least one selected organic acid. In some embodiments, the film-forming polymer may be a polyvinylpyrrolidone or chitosan. The organic acid may be methanesulfonic acid, a selected carboxylic acid, a selected amino acid, or a combination thereof. When applied to a surface, the composition forms a film having enhanced durability without imparting poor surface feel or visual effects, and provides biocidal efficacy over an extended period of time.
