Thermosensitive Behavior and Super-Antibacterial Properties of Cotton Fabrics Modified with a Sercin-NIPAAm-AgNPs Interpenetrating Polymer Network Hydrogel

Thermosensitive Behavior and Super-Antibacterial Properties of Cotton Fabrics Modified with a Sercin-NIPAAm-AgNPs Interpenetrating Polymer Network Hydrogel

Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm), sericin (SS), and silver nitrate were combined to prepare an interpenetrating network (IPN) hydrogel having dual functions of temperature sensitivity and antibacterial properties. The structure and size of AgNPs in such an IPN hydrogel were characterized by the...
