Atas ketersediaan bahan mesra alam yang kian pesat untuk pelbagai institusi ekonomi, kini bahan biopolimer bukanlah alternatif asing bagi menggantikan polimer sintetik. Pengolahan sifat kimia selulosa merupakan salah satu langkah ke arah kemapanan yang dapat memenuhi kehendak pasaran yang dahagakan sumber alam yang lestari. Selulosa terbukti memupuk kos penghasilan yang rendah, tidak toksik, mudah diolah dan kepelbagaian produk yang terjana daripadanya. Antara produknya ialah membran selulosa terjana semula (MSTS), bebenang, hidrogel dan aerogel. Walau bagaimanapun, keterbatasan produk yang dijana semula daripada selulosa terutamanya MSTS memerlukan pengubahsuaian fizikal mahupun kimia, serta bahan tambah yang lain untuk meningkatkan kefungsiannya. Antara bahan tambah MSTS seperti kitosan, nanozarah perak dan grafin oksida memberi sifat yang berbeza mengikut kehendak industri. Oleh itu, fokus utama ulasan kajian ini adalah bagi melihat kebaikan nilai tambah MSTS yang diolah daripada segi sifat fizikal, mekanikal, kimia, antibakteria dan biodegradasinya. Seterusnya, melihat aplikasi MSTS yang telah diubah suai terhadap industri khususnya perubatan, pertanian dan perawatan air.

Abstract

Due to the increasing availability of environmentally friendly materials for various economic institutions, now biopolymer materials are not a foreign alternative to replace synthetic polymers. The processing of the chemical properties of cellulose is one of the steps towards sustainability that can meet the needs of a market for sustainable natural resources. Cellulose was proven to cultivate low production costs, non -toxic, easy to process, and a variety of products generated from it. Among its products are regenerated cellulose membranes (RCM), threads, hydrogels, and aerogels. However, the limitations of products regenerated from cellulose especially RCM required pysical dan chemical modification and other additives to enhance its functionality. Among RCM additives such as chitosan, silver nanoparticles and graphene oxide impart different properties according to industry requirements. Therefore, the main focus of this study was to study the value-added benefits of processed MSTS as well as its effectiveness in terms of physical, mechanical, chemical, antibacterial and biodegradable properties. Furthermore, the application of RCM has been modified to industries particularly medicine, agriculture and waste water treatments are further evaluated.
