Applications of PVA film
PVA film has a number of applications. For example, it can be used as a barrier to gases and can improve optical properties. The main drawbacks of PVA film are its high water solubility, low tensile strength, and water absorption. However, these drawbacks can be overcome by blending it with other polymers.
The cross-linking of PVA film with organic acids has a number of benefits. It can enhance the physicochemical and biological properties of the film, thereby improving its bactericidal activity. The use of lactic acid (LA) in the cross-linking process significantly improved the bactericidal properties of the film.
The antibacterial activity of PVA film was studied against Gram-negative Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The films were cut into 15 mm diameters and inoculated in Lysogeny broth. The bacteria were then diluted in sterile water and placed on nutrient agar plates. Incubation was conducted at 37degC for 24 to 48 hours. The inhibitory zones of the films were then tested using agar plates to measure their antibacterial activity.
