Vermiculite With Ag and Cu Used as an Antibacterial Nanofiller in Polyethylene/ Vermikulit S Ag A Cu Použitý Jako Antibakteriální Nanoplnivo V Polyethylenu
Abstract:Vermiculite (Ver) enriched with silver and copper was used as nanofiller to the polyethylene (PE) matrix. Specifically, the low density polyethylene (LDPE) was chosen as a matrix. The samples Ver-Ag,Cu were prepared by shaking of Ver with the aqueous solutions of silver and copper nitrate. The mixtures of the Ver nanofillers and PE were homogenized by melt compounding technique and further thin plates were pressed from stiff matter of PE with Ver nanofiller. The exfoliation of the powdery Ver nanofillers in PE… Show more
