Antifouling membranes prepared by electrospinning polylactic acid containing biocidal nanoparticles

We prepared non-woven electrospun polylactic acid (PLA) membranes containing functionalized sepiolite fibrillar particles (5 wt%). Biocidal activity was achieved by functionalizing sepiolite fibers with Ag (26 wt%) and Cu (26 wt%), which were embedded in the fiber surface. Sepiolite particles were n...
