Özet
Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) clay were modified with alkyl halides, bromoethane (BrE), bromodecane (BrD), and bromooctadecane (BrOD), respectively. The FT-IR spectra of modified HNTs demonstrated an increase in the intensity of aliphatic –CH2 peaks at 2920 and 2850 cm?1 proportional to the number of C atoms in the modifying agent confirming the success of chemical modification with corresponding alkyl halides. Surface charge of NaOH treated HNTs, ?65.7 ± 5.1 mV was increased to ?37.1 ± 2.4, ?40.6 ± 5.3, and ?44.7 ± 1.9 mV, respectively upon chemical modification with BrE, BrD, and BrOD. The Surface area of the HNT clays, 43.2 ± 1.3 m2/g was also increased to 59.8 ± 2.7, 56.9 ± 2.1, and 47.9 ± 1.7 m2/g for BrE, BrD, and BrOD modified HNT clays, respectively. Base-activated HNT clays at 1 mg/mL concentration found to be nonhemolytic with 3.5 ± 1.2% hemolysis ratio, whereas HNT-BrOD clays were slightly exceeded hemolytic safety level with 6.6 ± 0.2% hemolysis induction. Base-activated HNT and HNT-BrOD clays were found to show antithrombogenic character with more than 100% blood clotting indexes,107.6 ± 1.8, and 106.5 ± 1.9%, respectively. Cytotoxicity studies of HNTs on L929 fibroblast cells revealed that HNTs in 12.5–200 ?g/mL concentration range were shown dose-dependent cell viability, and above 50% cell viability was maintained at 200 ?g/mL in all forms of HNT based clays administered. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.
