摘要
Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/Ag-zeolite nanocomposite hydrogels were prepared by UV irradiation using PVA solution mixed with Ag-zeolite nanoparticles. Physical properties and changes in morphology of the PVA/Ag-zeolite hydrogels were investigated. The PVA/Ag-zeolite hydrogels were prepared at a PVA concentration of 9 wt% with a UV irradiation distance of 15 cm, where gel fraction and swelling ratio were optimized. Hardness of the PVA/Ag-zeolite hydrogels decreased with increasing amounts of Ag-zeolite, reaching that of soft elastomer when the amount of Ag-zeolite was 5 % by weight. The PVA/Ag-zeolite hydrogels showed strong antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiellapneumoniae, inducing a reduction of bacteria of over 99.9 % at a Ag-zeolite content of 3 wt%.
