Abstract

The study investigates the interactions in interpolymer complex based on poly(aspartic acid) known as a nontoxic, biocompatible and biodegradable polymer and a film-forming synthetic polymer, doped with silver nanopaticles with a wide antibacterial spectrum. There is a great potential in utilizing these blends in many domains such as biopharmaceutical preparations (drug delivery systems, percipients in tablets). The intervened interactions between the different components of the system are evaluated through dynamic rheology and FTIR spectroscopy..
