Tuning antibacterial properties of poly(vinyl alcohol)/TiO2 composite films by chemically grafting with 3,3′,4,4′-biphenyltetracarboxylic acid
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs)/3,3′,4,4′-Benzophenone tetracarboxylic acid (BPTA) antibacterial films were prepared by solvent casting and chemical grafting using PVA as the base material and TiO2 NPs and BPTA as antibacterial materials. Scanning electron microscop...
