In this work, poly(acrylic acid) based superabsorbent polymers(SAPs) which have bactericidal property was successfully synthesized using a natural resource, cardanol. Cardanol could be obtained from chasew nut shell liquid and shows excellent bactericidal property. Moreover, it can be crosslinked with polyacrylic acid, making an ester bond at the surface. The bactericidal tests and water uptake measurements were carried out with various amount of cardanol. In the result, the surface crosslinking could enhance the water retention ability of SAP as well as good bactericidal property. Therefore, the SAPs having high water absorbency will be expected to be widely used in industrial field with enhanced bactericidal property. |
