POLYVINYL ALCOHOL/CHITOSAN COMPOSITE SOLUBLE ELECTROSPUN NANOFIBERS FOR DISINFECTANT ANTI-BACTERIAL AND ANTI-CORROSION APPLICATIONS

摘要

A natural liquid composition is provided for disinfectant, antibacterial or anticorrosion applications. The natural liquid composition is an electrospun solubilized composition of natural chitosan (CS) and an FDA approved polymer polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Two fillers, citric acid (CA) and ascorbic acid (AA), added anti-corrosion property to the composite nanofiber solution without affecting the other properties (disinfectant and antibacterial) and have a final synergistic effect of all components together in a final solution form. Embodiment of the invention advances the art by providing a natural solution to overcome at least some of the problems with the currently used agents.
