Nanocomposite films of (30% PVC/70% PVDF) blend containing silver nanoparticles were synthesized via pulsed laser ablation route (PLA). Changes in physical characterization of PVC/PVDF blend before and after the incorporation of AgNPs have been studied. FTIR results confirms the interaction between AgNPs and PVC/PVDF. XRD results obtain the existence of peak at 38.42̊ in sample PVC/PVDF/Ag4 which confirm the embedded AgNPs in the high concentration. SEM photos confirm the distribution of silver nanoparticles on the surface of the sample in spherical shape which approved the dispersion of silver nanoparticles in PVC/PVDF blend. The inhibitory zone diameters observed for PVC/PVDF/Ag4 against Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, and Bacillus cereus were recorded as 11 ± 1, 10 ± 1, 15.7 ± 0.6, and 17.7 ± 0.6, respectively. PVC/PVDF/AgNPs nanocomposite film could be suggested for biomedical applications such as wound healing products.
