Antibacterial Characteristics of Cellulose Materials Modified with Copper Nanoparticles

Аннотация

Methods for the synthesis of copper nanoparticles by reduction of copper sulfate in an aqueous medium in the presence of polyvinylpyrrolidone are examined. The effect of the content of the employed reagents, the pH of the medium, and the temperature on the synthesis of copper nanoparticles was investigated. The antibacterial characteristics of cellulose materials modified with copper nanoparticles are described.
