In this study, porous natural rubber (NR) films loaded with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were prepared by the solvent casting method. The structure of NR was formed hydrophilic substances such as glycerol, pectin or carrageenan. film properties including morphology, mechanical test, hydrophilicity evaluation, water absorption, release and antibacterial activity determined. From results, morphol...
