Mussel-Inspired Approach to Constructing Dual Network Coated Layered Clay for Enhanced Barrier and Antibacterial Properties of Poly(vinyl alcohol) Nanocomposites

Inspired by complexation and mussel adhesion of catechol groups in tannic acid (TA), organophilic layered double hydroxides (LDHs@TA-Ti) were synthesized by forming a one-pot assembled TA-titanium (Ti) dual network coating on the surface of layered clay for the first time. LDHs@TA-Ti/poly(vinyl alco...
