Dataset of Sac/CNF-Ag nanocomposites for antibacterial properties

Abstract

The data in this article includes a variety of analysis, including swelling, viscosity and FT-IR to better understand the thermal-mechanical, viscoelastic and swelling properties of sacran, CNF, and Ag nanoparticles individually and collectively. The fabrication method of Sacran, CNF, and Sac/CNF-Ag composite films is also demonstrated in this data item and are related to the research article “Facile design of antibacterial sheets of sacran and nanocellulose”. This data article summarizes all the information so that it is evident how silver nanoparticle-polysaccharide hydrogels might be employed as an on-demand dressings due to their proven ability to reduce bacterial viability.
