Keywords:
chitosan, poly(vinyl alcohol), solvent casting, film, silver nanoparticlesAbstract
Thin films are economical materials that can be produced easily and quickly with the potential to be used for many different applications such as active packaging, tissue engineering products, energy, water treatment and sensors. One of the most important features that these materials should have is their ease of application as well as their ability to exhibit microbial activity. In this context, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are unique materials. From this point of view, in our study, we aimed to synthesize AgNPs on polymer films easily and quickly. AgNPs entrapped chitosan/poly(vinyl alcohol) (CTSN:PVA) thin films were prepared by solvent casting of polymers and in situ synthesis of nanoparticles, respectively. The formation of AgNPs was confirmed by determining the molecular structure, morphology and wettability of films. The internal structure was evaluated using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), the morphology was viewed by optical microscope and wettability was determined using contact angle measurements. The successful formation of AgNPs synthesis on CTSN:PVA films will impart high microbial activity to plain films, making them up-and-coming materials for biomedical applications and electrochemical disinfection.
