<span>A study on properties of polymeric films incorporated with silver-coatedTiO₂ nano particles</span>

Abstract

In this research, Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) nanocomposite polymeric films containing different concentrations of silver (Ag) nanoparticles (NPs) and TiO2 were manufactured via extrusion and subsequently characterized. Silver/TiO2 surfaces have advantageous properties such as visible light photo catalysis, biological compatibility, and antimicrobial activity. The synthesis of polymer-Ag NPs and Ag NPs on TiO2 are also summarized because of their industrial and environmental importance [1]. In the present study, the morphological, mechanical, and optical performance of the nanocomposite polymeric films is investigated.
