Abstract :
Nano-TiO2 was prepared by sol-gel technology. The results displayed that the particle size of modified TiO2 was less than 20 nm, and that of the unmodified TiO2 was about 30nm; XRD analysis confirmed the TiO2 made from sol-gel method was anatase type. TiO2/NR nanocomposites were found to possess excellent antibacterial and antifungal effects.
