Preparation, Characterization And Slow-Release Properties Of Biocomposites Comprising Chitosan Encapsulated In Natural Rubber Matrices

Projek penyelidikan ini terdiri daripada dua bahagian. Pada bahagian pertama, kesan pH ke atas kestabilan gel chitosan berasid (CTSAc) bersama 1-Naftol (produk dilabelkan sebagai CTSAc/1-N) atau 2-Naftol (produk dilabelkan sebagai CTSAc/2-N) ditentukan. Dalam air berasid (pH ≤ 4), CTSAc/1-N atau CTS...

Pada bahagian pertama, kesan pH ke atas kestabilan gel chitosan berasid (CTSAc) bersama 1-Naftol (produk dilabelkan sebagai CTSAc/1-N) atau 2-Naftol (produk dilabelkan sebagai CTSAc/2-N) ditentukan. Dalam air berasid (pH ≤ 4), CTSAc/1-N atau CTSAc/2-N membentuk gel dan pecah dengan mudah. Dalam air neutral (pH ≈ 7), CTSAc/1-N dan CTSAc/2-N membentuk gel tetapi masih kelihatan utuh walaupun selepas dua minggu. Dalam air beralkali (pH ≥ 9), CTSAc/1-N dan CTSAc/2-N sukar membentuk gel walaupun selepas direndam selama tiga bulan.

Kajian pengambilan air oleh NRucl, NRcl, {CTSAc}NRucl dan {CTSAc}NRcl telah dikaji. Daripada kajian ini, jumlah peratusan air dalam NRcl, NRucl, {CTSAc}NRcl dan {CTSAc}NRucl selepas 48 jam didapati berjumlah 1.8%, 3.0%, 75% dan 131%, masing-masing.

In acidified water (pH ≤ 4), CTSAc/1-N or CTSAc/2-N swelled tremendously and broke apart easily. In neutral water (pH ≈ 7), CTSAc/1-N and CTSAc/2-N swelled but remained intact even after two weeks. In alkalized water (pH ≥ 9), CTSAc/1-N and CTSAc/2-N hardly swelled even after being soaked for three months. In addition, biocomposites comprised of solely CTSAc encapsulated in uncrosslinked natural rubber ({CTSAc}NRucl) and crosslinked natural rubber ({CTSAc}NRcl) were prepared.

In the second part, biocomposites comprised of CTSAc/1-N or CTSAc/2-N encapsulated in NRucl ({CTSAc/1-N}NRucl or {CTSAc/2-N}NRucl) and in NRcl ({CTSAc/1-N}NRcl or {CTSAc/2-N}NRcl) were prepared.
