effects of nano-cellulose treated with silver nanoparticles on health and the strength properties of paper packing

improvement of the physical and mechanical properties of paper in the discussion of the application is very important. in order to fulfill this purpose, conventional processing techniques such as filtering and addition of long fibers and other chemicals such as additive resistors for dry and wet the pulp have been used. one of the methods to improve the physical and mechanical properties of paper, is nano-cellulose to produce nano fibrillated cellulose (nfc) with relatively large diameter and effective surface oh groups available in abundance as a result in reinforcing paper. on the other hand, in various industries like packaging industry and health products, anti-bacterial properties help to prevent the development of bacteria and as a result community health would be improved. in order to improve the antibacterial properties of paper, nano-materials such as nanosilver, nano titanium dioxide, zinc and other materials can be used. silver oxide nanoparticles (np) as antimicrobial agents has been of great interest, which has a higher shelf life than organic antimicrobial agents. increased awareness of infectious diseases caused by various microorganisms to develop resistance to antibiotics, which makes the search for new materials and efficient anti bacteria is essential.
