Description

Nano-clays are hydrous silicate minerals with a sheet structure that have a special place in various industries, especially in the field of health and treatment, due to their nano-metric dimensions (at least in one dimension) and unique structural properties. The presence of a negative surface charge with strong physical adsorption capacity is one of the valuable structural features of these inexpensive minerals, which has placed them among the organic nanostructures that absorb water and pathogens. Adding homogenized raw nano-clays to the composition of health products (especially cellulose) due to their increased water and bacteria absorption properties is a significant advance in the preparation and production of environmentally friendly anti-pathogenic products that are compatible with the body's biological system. Optimizing the composition of health products with modified nano-clays by efficient methods of modern nanotechnology is a fundamental and valuable step in the synthesis of safe mineral antibacterial products with minimal side effects (unlike chemical materials). Homogeneous and modified sodium nano-clays (bentonite) due to the increase in specific surface area and adsorption of health products, in addition to water absorption in improving the antibacterial properties of these products, are a great step in the synthesis of environmentally friendly health products and low side effects for human health. Sanitary products treated with nano-clay as a filler have better antibacterial properties and pose the least environmental and organic risks compared to non-clay products.

Keywords Nano-clay, Bentonite, Antibacterial, Sanitary products.
