Formulation of Polyurethane with Bentonite-Chitosan as Filler Applied to Carbon Steel as an Antibacterial and Environmentally Friendly Paint

Plants are the most abundant bioresources, providing valuable materials that can be used as additives in polymeric materials, such as lignocellulosic fibers, nano-cellulose, or lignin, as well as plant extracts containing bioactive phenolic and flavonoid compounds used in the healthcare, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and nutraceutical industries. The incorporation of additives into polymeric materials improves their properties to make them suitable for multiple applications. Efforts are made to incorporate into the raw polymers various natural biobased and biodegradable additives with a low environmental fingerprint, such as by-products, biomass, plant extracts, etc. In this review we will illustrate in the first part recent examples of lignocellulosic materials, lignin, and nano-cellulose as reinforcements or fillers in various polymer matrices and in the second part various applications of plant extracts as active ingredients in food packaging materials based on polysaccharide matrices (chitosan/starch/alginate).In this review various recent applications of plant-based additives (lignocellulosic fibers/nano-cellulose as well as bioactive plant extracts) as reinforcements and active ingredients in food packaging materials are illustrated. Natural polysaccharide biopolymers (such as chitosan/starch/alginate) are nontoxic, biodegradable, biocompatible, and largely used in food packaging: Chitosan is known for its broad antimicrobial activity and its excellent film-forming properties; alginates have good film-forming properties, retain moisture, reduce microbial counts, and retard oxidative off-flavors; and starch is also particularly important for its cheap price and its frequency in nature. For these reasons, this review will present applications of plant extracts as active ingredients in natural polysaccharide biopolymers: chitosan/starch/alginate. Classification of Natural Biodegradable Polymers and AdditivesNatural biodegradable polymers and additives are polymers formed naturally by the living organisms by enzyme-catalyzed reactions and reactions of chain growth from monomers which are formed inside the cells by complex metabolic processes [5].Natural additives can be high molecular weight (natural polymers), such as proteins (collagen, silk, and keratin), carbohydrates (starch and glycogen), lignin, cellulose, high molecular weight phenolics (tannins and derivatives), and low molecular weight active substances, such as cold-pressed oils, essential oils (organic volatile compounds, generally of low molecular weight,

“…The use of chitosanbentonite matrix has been reported as a viable adsorbent for the separation of pollutants like heavy metals, dyes compounds, organic compounds, to mention but a few, from aqueous solutions especially those modified with surfactants (such as cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, CTAB, with molecular formula [(C16H33)N(CH3)3]Br) to enhance interlayer spacing of the bentonite structural frame work and introduce NH4 + as functional group in the composite or hybrid adsorbent [25]. In addition, CTAB facilitates adequate interlayer opening for chitosan intercalation [26][27] coupled with the electrostatic attraction of NH3 + and the available negative sites bentonite structure [28]. This is important because adsorption of organic molecules onto clay minerals is influenced by the chemical properties of the molecules and its surface properties [29].…”

The aim of this article was to compare the predictive abilities of the optimization techniques of response surface methodology (RSM), the hybrid of RSM–genetic algorithm (RSM–GA) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy interference logic system (ANFILS) for design responses of % removal of naphthalene and adsorption capacity of the synthesized composite nanoparticles of chitosan–cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)–sodium bentonite clay. The process variables considered were surfactant concentration, , activation time, , activation temperature, , and chitosan dosage, . The ANFILS models showed better modeling abilities of the adsorption data on the synthesized composite adsorbent than those of ANN for reason of lower % mean absolute deviation, lower % error value, higher coefficient of determination, , amongst others and lower error functions’ values than those obtained using ANN for both responses. When applied RSM, the hybrid of RSM–genetic algorithm (RSM–GA) and ANFILS 3–D surface pot optimization technique to determine the optimal conditions for both responses, ANFILS was adjudged the best. The ANFILS predicted optimal conditions were = 116.00 mg/L, = 2.06 h, = 81.2oC and = 5.20 g. Excellent agreements were achieved between the predicted responses of 99.055% removal of naphthalene and 248.6375 mg/g adsorption capacity and their corresponding experimental values of 99.020% and 248.86 mg/g with % errors of -0.0353 and 0.0894 respectively. Hence, in this study, ANFILS has been successfully used to model and optimize the conditions for the treatment of industrial wastewater containing polycyclic aromatic compounds, especially naphthalene and is hereby recommended for such and similar studies.

Chitosan/clay hybrid nanoparticles have been prepared as natural antibacterial and anticorrosion agents to enhance the protective function of polyurethane-based coating paints. Chitosan is a material with antibacterial properties because it contains acetamide group which is widely used for hygiene purposes in the medical field. Clay is a natural clay particle with a hollow structure that allows loading and release of active substances such as surfactant ions that can contribute to improving the properties of the material. The polyurethane in this study was obtained from palm oil oleic acid, which was processed into polyol, toluene diisocyanate was added to produce polyurethane. Coating paint is efficiently loaded with chitosan and clay active substances which are combined to form a hybrid composite. Based on the FTIR data of polyurethane showing the formation of a hydroxyl group on the palm oil epoxide compound, the reaction lasted for 2 hours at 60oC as evidenced by the absorption of the OH wave number which widened at 3305.99 cm-1. The value of the wavelength of the OH group in the bentonite sample before and after purification has decreased, proving that the intercalation of surfactants into the bentonite interlayer causes the hydrophilic nature of bentonite to change to hydrophobicity. The d-spacing layer of raw bentonite has a maximum reflection angle peak of 7.26o with a d-spacing value of 1.132 nm, and the d-spacing size increases to 1.631 nm at the peak of the maximum reflection angle of 4.49o after purification. The presence of absorption at 1064.71 cm-1 in shrimp shell chitosan indicates COC vibration.
