Luminescent and UV-Shielding ZnO Quantum Dots/Carboxymethylcellulose Sodium Nanocomposite Polymer Films

Abstract: Luminescent and UV-shielding bio-polymers have seldom been reported. Zinc oxide quantum dots (ZnOQD) (~3.2 nm) was synthesized by a short-term sol-gel method. ZnOQD possessed a crystal lattice spacing of 0.28 nm and a hexagonal wurtzite structure. Luminescent and UV-shielding ZnOQD/carboxymethylcellulose sodium (CMC) nanocomposite polymer films were successfully fabricated by incorporating ZnOQD into a CMC matrix through a solution casting method. Thermal analysis demonstrated that the ZnOQD reduce the thermal… Show more

“…This occurs because lignin presents a complex structure, that is composed of phenolic hydroxyl, carbonyl groups, and benzylic hydroxyl, that present different thermal stability. So, its degradation occurs in temperatures ranging from 200 to 500 � C where the weight of the sample is reduced ~50 wt% (Domínguez et al, 2008) On the other hand, CMC degradation occurs in a narrow temperature range (200-340 � C) (Li et al, 2018).…”

“…It is recognized as a bio-safe material. 14 Its use in cosmetic products is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). 15 But the inconvenient of ZnO is that the antibacterial activity is too low, far from meeting the requirement of high antibacterial activity.…”

“…There are other materials also used in UV shielding. Especially, different types of dye, carbon, and polydopamine are also used as UV-shielding materials [ 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 ]. However, the CeO 2 , similar to other metal oxides, is an attractive choice as it is significantly less toxic, cheap, and possesses filler properties [ 4 , 7 ].…”
