Thin films hydroxyethyl cellulose/silver nanoparticles (HEC/AGNP) for antibacterial studies
Thin films of hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) containing silver nanoparticles were prepared and characterized. Silver nitrate (AgNO 3 ) aqueous solution was reduced by HEC by heating and this solution was used to form the thin film. HEC/AgNP solution and the thin films were characterized using SEM and...
