Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a natural polymer with notable biocompatibility and biodegradability that has attracted the interest of the scientific community and industries due to its versatility in different fields as well as its low cost and ease of production. The incorporation of iron oxides into the BC matrix has been explored as a strategy to impart new properties to materials. The difference incorporation methods include the synthesis of particles in the interior of the biomaterial (coprecipitation, thermal decomposition, and in situ electrolysis) and ex situ processes involving the incorporation of previously synthesised particles. The particle incorporation method and respective production variables exert an impact on the characteristics of the assimilated oxide particles and the material produced. The incorporation of iron oxides into BC enables the production of a flexible material with magnetic, piezoelectric, antibiotic, and antitumor properties, with medical, electronic, and wastewater treatment applications. This chapter offers a literature review on this promising material, presenting the most widely used production processes and applications.

摘要

Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a natural polymer with notable biocompatibility and biodegradability that has attracted the interest of the scientific community and industries due to its versatility in different fields as well as its low cost and ease of production. The incorporation of iron oxides into the BC matrix has been explored as a strategy to impart new properties to materials. The difference incorporation methods include the synthesis of particles in the interior of the biomaterial (coprecipitation, thermal decomposition, and in situ electrolysis) and ex situ processes involving the incorporation of previously synthesised particles. The particle incorporation method and respective production variables exert an impact on the characteristics of the assimilated oxide particles and the material produced. The incorporation of iron oxides into BC enables the production of a flexible material with magnetic, piezoelectric, antibiotic, and antitumor properties, with medical, electronic, and wastewater treatment applications. This chapter offers a literature review on this promising material, presenting the most widely used production processes and applications.
