Synthesis and Characterization of Silver Nanoparticles/Kappa Carrageenan-Chitosan Hydrogel Films as Antibacterial Material

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study proposed to synthesize the silver nanoparticle/kappa carrageenan-chitosan (AgNPs/KCar-Chit) hydrogel films and identify the effects of AgNPs on their physical properties and antibacterial performance. The AgNPs/KCar-Chit has been synthesized in 2 stages. The first stage was the synthesis of AgNPs/KCar colloids via the chemical reduction route assisted by microwave irradiation. In the second stage, the silver/kappa carrageenan (AgNPs/KCar) colloid was incorporated with chitosan, and a film was made using the casting technique. The silver nanoparticles formed were validated with a UV-Vis spectrophotometer through the absorption peak at about 400 nm wavelength. FTIR spectra exhibited peaks emerging at the wavenumber 1559.89 cm-1 – 1561.75 cm-1, indicating the formation of the carrageenan-chitosan polyelectrolyte complex. The AgNPs/KCar-Chit hydrogel films had an average solubility of 32%-34%, swelling of 300%-304%, and the surface morphology formed aggregates. The mechanical properties were particularly affected by the incorporation of chitosan. Still, the introduction of AgNPs into the films also influenced the tensile strength, elongation, and elasticity of the AgNPs/KCar-Chit hydrogel film. Further, the greater concentration of AgNPs enhanced the antibacterial performance of the AgNPs/KCar-Chit hydrogel films.
