Preparation of Hydrophobic Antimicrobal Compounds Encapsulated Nanoparticles Using Alkoxysilane-functionalized Amphiphilic Polymer Precursor and Their Antimicrobial Properties
Abstract:In this study, nanoparticles which encapsulated hydrophobic antimicrobial compounds with 50wt% of payload and 70%of solid content were prepared. These nanoparticles could be dispersed at water as well as various medium. Water dispersible organic-inorganic (O-I) hybrid nanoparticles were first prepared using alkoxysilane-functionalized amphiphilic polymer precursors through a conventional sol-gel process. Hydrophobic antimicrobial compound, Eugenol encapsulated nanoparticles were prepared using these O-I hybrid… Show more
