Grafting alginate biopolymers with p -menthane-3,8-diol: synthesis and application in sustainable mosquito-repellent textiles
Abstract
In this study, we innovatively graft PMD onto alginate via chemical modification and, for the first time, load it onto a PP non-woven fabric through Ca 2+ crosslinking to achieve efficient mosquito repellency.
