Nano silver-embedded electrospun nanofiber of poly(4-chloro-3-methylphenyl methacrylate): use as water sanitizer

Abstract: Water contaminated with microorganisms causes numerous diseases and is a major concern for public health. In search of a simple material which can provide clean water free from pathogens, nanofibers of poly(4-chloro-3-methylphenyl methacrylate, abbreviated as CMPMA, and nano Ag-doped poly(CMPMA) composite nanofibers were used to decontaminate water from microorganisms such as Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis. Nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron m… Show more

“…The phenomenal properties of the low‐cost NaAlg are biocompatibility, nontoxicity, and its biological origin . To generate antimicrobial properties in blended polymer solutions, the incorporation of metallic nanoparticles is required, such as silver nanoparticles (Ag‐NPs) and ZnO‐NPs . The ZnO‐NPs metallic nanoparticles enhance water permeability, antibacterial activity, and metal uptake capacity .…”
