A catalytic antioxidant composite was prepared by adsorbing redox active metal complexes and polyelectrolytes on layered double hydroxide nanoclay, showing excellent activity in the dismutation of superoxide radicals and negligible activity in other antioxidant tests. The structural characterization revealed that the advantageous coordination geometry around the copper (II) center contributed to the superior superoxide radical scavenging ability of the composite.
An antioxidant nanocomposite was prepared by successive adsorption of redox active metal complexes (copper(ii)-bipyridyl and iron(iii)-citrate) and polyelectrolytes (poly(styrene sulfonate) and poly(diallyldimethyl ammonium)) on layered double hydroxide nanoclay. The experimental conditions were optimized in each preparation step and thus, the final composite formed highly stable colloids, i.e., excellent resistance against salt-induced aggregation was achieved. Due to the synergistic effect of the metal complexes, the developed composite showed remarkable activity in the dismutation of superoxide radicals, close to the one determined for the native superoxide dismutase enzyme. The obtained composite is highly selective for superoxide radical dismutation, while its activity in other antioxidant tests was close to negligible. Structural characterization of the composite revealed that the excellent superoxide radical scavenging ability originated from the advantageous coordination geometry around the copper(ii) center formed upon immobilization. The structure formed around the metal centers led to optimal redox features and consequently, to an improved superoxide dismutase-like activity. The catalytic antioxidant composite is a promising candidate to reduce oxidative stress in industrial manufacturing processes, where natural enzymes quickly lose their activity due to the harsh environmental conditions.
