Novel Modified Chitosan/Clay Nanocomposites with Antimicrobial Activity
Abstract: Unmodified sodium montmorillonite (Na-MMT) and montmorillonite modified by poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) were used to intercalate chitosan (CS) and chitosan blended with polytertahydrofuran (CS-PTHF750). Their structures were characterized by XRD, TEM and IR techniques. The results showed that CS and CS-PTHF750 chains were inserted into silicate layers. The interlayer distance of the layered silicates in the nanocomposites enlarged as the amount of polymer increased. The thermal stability of the nanocomposites is characterized …
