Characterization of Antibacterial Film Based on PVA and Clove Oil/β-Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex

Abstract:

The antibacterial PVA film was produced by addition of the clove oil/β-cyclodextrin(β-CD) inclusion complex into PVA directly with solvent salivating. The formation of clove oil /β-CD inclusion complex was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR).The influence of different additive amount of inclusion complex on the mechanical properties, transparency, and moisture permeable performance of the film had been studied. The elongation at break of films decreased in a low degree when the adding was less than 20%; The transmittance of films declined apparently when the inclusion complex adding was above 15%, and the visuality of the films didn’t change when the adding was over 25%. The inclusion complex adding had effect on the moisture permeability of films, and moisture permeability of films increased sharply when the adding was more than 15%.
