Abstract

Nonwoven fabrics (NW) are used in many medical, industrial, and automotive applications; however, their functionalization to enhance their properties has become important. In this study, a polymeric matrix (denoted as PVB/PPG/ZnO) comprised of polyvinyl butyral solution (PVB), polypropylene glycol (PPG), 3-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (C), and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) was utilized t...
