Title: | Electrochemical synthesis and characterization of silver doped poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan hydrogels | Authors: | Nešović K. Kojić, Vesna Rhee K. Mišković-Stanković V. |
Issue Date: | 1-Dec-2017 | Journal: | Corrosion | Abstract: | © 2017, NACE International. In this paper, novel silver-doped poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitosan/graphene (Ag/PVA/CHI/Gr) nanocomposites were produced by in situ electrochemical synthesis of silver nanoparticles in the polyvinyl alcohol/chitosan/graphene (PVA/CHI/Gr) matrix. The presence of silver nanoparticles, as an antibacterial agent, was proven by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The synthesized nanocomposites were further characterized by scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Thermal stability was investigated using thermogravimetric analysis, while electrochemical properties of PVA/CHI/Gr and Ag/PVA/CHI/Gr were examined by cyclic voltammetry. It was suggested that silver nanoparticles were embedded in the PVA/CHI/Gr matrix as a result of chemical bonding with hydroxyl groups of PVA and amine and hydroxyl groups of CHI, and have improved thermal stability of PVA/CHI/Gr hydrogel. | URI: | https://open.uns.ac.rs/handle/123456789/2327 | ISSN: | 109312 | DOI: | 10.5006/2507 |
