Abstract
The common approach to creating antimicrobial polymer materials is the distribution of a bactericidal additive in a material by mixing the additive with a solution or a melt of the polymer. This work proposes the method introducing of copper(II) sulfate, which has antimicrobial properties, into a poly(lactic acid) film by forced impregnation of a salt solution via the crazing mechanism. CuSO4 has been found to be uniformly distributed in the bulk of the polymer in the form of particles with sizes of about 100 nm. In the course of the structural modification, the surface of the polymer film becomes rougher and more hydrophobic. The water contact angle increases from 40° to 60°–65°. The incorporation of CuSO4 does not affect the surface properties but has a reinforcing effect on the polymer matrix as is evident from tensile tests (strength and elongation at break increase by 2.5 and 1.4 times, respectively).
期刊介绍：
Colloid Journal (Kolloidnyi Zhurnal) is the only journal in Russia that publishes the results of research in the area of chemical science dealing with the disperse state of matter and surface phenomena in disperse systems. The journal covers experimental and theoretical works on a great variety of colloid and surface phenomena: the structure and properties of interfaces; adsorption phenomena and structure of adsorption layers of surfactants; capillary phenomena; wetting films; wetting and spreading; and detergency. The formation of colloid systems, their molecular-kinetic and optical properties, surface forces, interaction of colloidal particles, stabilization, and criteria of stability loss of different disperse systems (lyosols and aerosols, suspensions, emulsions, foams, and micellar systems) are also topics of the journal. Colloid Journal also includes the phenomena of electro- and diffusiophoresis, electro- and thermoosmosis, and capillary and reverse osmosis, i.e., phenomena dealing with the existence of diffusion layers of molecules and ions in the vicinity of the interface.
