Electrophoresis was used to produce defectless chitosan/polyethylene glycol/polydopamine composite films with improved tensile strength and slower decomposition rate. The addition of hydrogen peroxide and polyethylene glycol inhibited parasitic hydrogen bubble formation during electrophoresis, resulting in environmentally friendly composite films with excellent UV-shielding ability.
The film-forming process of chitosan composite films is an important issue because it affects their experimental design, chemicals used, and feasibility of large-scaled fabrication. In this work, electrophoresis is employed to produce chitosan composite films with significantly reduced processing time and environmentally friendly chemicals. With the addition of hydrogen peroxide and polyethylene glycol, the parasitic hydrogen bubble formation during the electrophoresis of chitosan and polydopamine is effectively inhibited that leads to the formation of a defectless chitosan/polyethylene glycol/polydopamine composite film which could be removed from the substrate readily. In addition, the chitosan/polyethylene glycol/polydopamine composite film reveals significantly improved tensile strength and a slower decomposition rate as compared to those of chitosan film and chitosan/polyethylene glycol composite film. This is attributed to the strong interaction between chitosan and polydopamine. Lastly, the chitosan/polyethylene glycol/polydopamine composite film exhibits excellent UV-shielding ability without compromising its visible transparency.
