Antibacterial Property of Cellulose Acetate Composite Materials Reinforced with Aluminum Nitride
Cellulose acetate (CA) is a synthetic compound that is derived from the acetylation of cellulose. CA is well known as it has been used for many commercial products such as textiles, plastic films, and cigarette filters. In this research, antibacterial CA composites were produced by addition of alumi...

Cellulose acetate (CA) is a synthetic compound that is derived from the acetylation of cellulose.

The surface characterization was performed using laser microscope, Raman and FTIR spectroscopy. The mechanical and thermal properties of the composite were analyzed.
