摘要
Due to environmental and climatic problems caused by synthetic polymers, the need for biomaterials is increasing daily due to a cleaner environment and sustainability. This study produced new nanocomposites based on biopolymer chitosan (CS). Nanocomposites were prepared by combining a new methacrylate polymer, poly(2-{[(2,4-dichlorophenyl)methyl]amino}-2-oxoethyl-2-methylprop-2-enoate (PDCBMA), CS, and biosynthesized Ag NPs by hydrothermal method. NMR, FTIR, XRD, SEM, EDX and TEM were used to characterize the prepared materials. According to thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) data, adding Ag NPs increased the thermal stability and glass transition temperature (Tg) value of the PDCBMA-CS blend. The addition of 7 % Ag NPs decreased the contact angle value of CS from 90.71° to 67.10°, making the CS surface relatively hydrophilic. With 7 % Ag NP loading, the inhibition zone of CS against E. coli pathogen increased from 11.12 ± 1.05 mm to 14.09 ± 1.44 mm. The nanocomposite containing 5 % Ag NPs showed toxic effects on cancer (A549) cells at concentrations as low as 16 µg/mL, while it showed non-cytotoxic effects on healthy (L929) cells. The data suggest that PDCBMA-CS/Ag nanocomposites can be used as alternative materials in food, healthcare, and biomedical fields. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.
