Immobilization of β-cyclodextrin onto polypropylene nonwoven fabric based on photooxidative surface modification

Abstract

We developed β-cyclodextrin (CD)/polypropylene (PP) composite nonwoven fabrics (NWFs) via surface modification of PP using the photoactivated chlorine dioxide radical (ClO2•) oxidation method. The hydrophilicity and dyeability of the PP NWFs were improved owing to the immobilization of β-CD. In addition, the prepared β-CD/PP composite NWFs showed sustained drug release for over 12 h in phosphate buffer, indicating that the β-CD supported on PP fibers functioned successfully.

  20. It is generally known that when the pH of surrounding solution increases, the positive charge on the PEI coated samples was shielded by OH−. The zeta potential of Ox-80-PEI decreases above pH 8.5, which indicates that cationic PEI is coated. Selected examples of zeta potential measurement for PEI coated material, see;
