BACTERICIDAL EFFECTIVENESS OF FREEZE-CAST CERAMIC FILTERS IMPREGNATED WITH SILVER NANOPARTICLES

ABSTRACT This work aimed to produce freeze-cast pellets of porous ceramic filters of alumina and kaolinite impregnated with silver nanoparticles and to test the efficiency of bactericidal effects. Silver nanoparticles were characterized by average particle size, zeta potential and TEM. After impregn...
