Abstract

Abstract: Antibacterial facial tissue papers were prepared by solution casting method with chitosan loaded bleached cellulosic pulp. Chitosan, in the film act as an antibacterial agent. Tissue paper films were fabricated by 50% cellulose and 50% chitosan (by weight, dry basis). Mechanical properties of the films were evaluated. It was found that tensile strength (TS) and elongation at break (EB) of the 50% chitosan contain films were 24 MPa and 10.8% respectively. To increase the plasticity of the tissue paper films glycerin was added 0.4 to 2% (by weight). It was found that with the incorporation of 1% glycerin in the tissue paper films the flexibility increased to 50%. Molecular interaction due to the chitosan addition was investigated by Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) spectroscopy. Water uptake property of glycerin contains films were also evaluated. In the soil medium, the degradation properties of the tissue paper films were carried out. The antibacterial property of the tissue paper was evaluated by disk diffusion method.

用生物基原料制备抗菌和可生物降解面巾纸及其性能:甘油的作用

摘要:以壳聚糖负载漂白纤维素浆，采用溶液铸造法制备抗菌面巾纸。壳聚糖在薄膜中起到抗菌剂的作用。用50%的纤维素和50%的壳聚糖(按重量，干基)制备薄纸薄膜。对薄膜的力学性能进行了评价。结果表明，50%壳聚糖含膜的抗拉强度和断裂伸长率分别为24 MPa和10.8%。为了提高薄纸薄膜的可塑性，添加了0.4 - 2%(重量)的甘油。结果表明，在薄纸薄膜中加入1%的甘油后，柔韧性提高到50%。利用傅里叶变换红外光谱(FTIR)研究了壳聚糖加成后的分子相互作用。并对含甘油薄膜的吸水性能进行了评价。在土壤介质中，研究了纸巾膜的降解特性。采用纸片扩散法对纸巾的抗菌性能进行了评价。
