Description |
The influence of montmorillonite nanoparticles used as nanofillers in the production process of polymer nanocomposites on the physicochemical properties of the main lipid component of the lung surfactant was studied. Research was done for nanoparticles of natural and surface-modified montmorillonite using the Langmuir-Wilhelmy balance. It was found that montmorillonite nanofillers alter the organization of the surfactant molecules at the air-liquid interface and modify the surface properties of the surfactant monolayer. It may cause the disturbance of surface activity of the lung surfactant and contribute to adverse health effects in the respiratory system of workers involved in the production process. |
