Abstract

Amphiphilic and conductive composites are considered important biomaterials and are used as antibacterial agents because they effectively inhibit bacterial growth. In this study; In the first step, amphiphilic poly(DMAEMA-co-MMA) copolymer was synthesized using free radical polymerization from hydrophilic monomer 2-dimethylamino ethylmethacrylate (DMAEMA) and hydrophobic monomer methyl methacrylate (MMA). In the second stage, five series of composites with different compositions were prepared using indole conductive monomer in the presence of iron(III) chloride (FeCl3) using the in situ oxidative polymerization technique on poly(DMAEMA-co-MMA) copolymer. The structures of polymer composites (PCs) were elucidated using FTIR, TGA, SEM, AFM characterization techniques. The antioxidant properties of the composites were examined. Antioxidant study findings showed that as the ratio of PIN in composites increased, the antioxidant values of the composites increased.

Özet

Amfifilik ve iletken kompozitler önemli biyomateryaller olarak kabul edilir ve bakteri üremesini etkili bir şekilde engelledikleri için antibakteriyel ajanlar olarak kullanılır. Bu çalışmada; İlk aşamada, hidrofilik monomer 2-dimetilamino etilmetakrilat (DMAEMA) ve hidrofobik monomer metil metakrilattan (MMA) serbest radikal polimerizasyonu kullanılarak amfifilik poli(DMAEMA-ko-MMA) kopolimeri sentezlendi. İkinci aşamada, poli(DMAEMA-ko-MMA) kopolimerinde in situ oksidatif polimerizasyon tekniği kullanılarak demir(III) klorür (FeCl3) varlığında indol iletken monomeri kullanılarak farklı bileşimlerde beş seri kompozit hazırlandı. Polimer kompozitlerin (PC'ler) yapıları FTIR, TGA, SEM, AFM karakterizasyon teknikleri kullanılarak aydınlatıldı. Kompozitlerin antioksidan özellikleri incelendi. Antioksidan çalışmaları bulguları, kompozitlerde PIN'in oranı arttıkça kompozitlerin antioksidan değerlerinin arttığını gösterdi.
