Abstract
⺠In situ and ex situ modified bacterial cellulose (BC) samples were prepared. ⺠Effects of modifications on morphological and surface characteristics of BC were determined. ⺠Water holding capacity (WHC) and release rate (WRR) were co-related to these properties. ⺠WHC and WRR increase with pore volume and pore size in in situ modified BC. ⺠In ex situ modified BC, WHC and WRR depend on nature and arrangement of composite materials.
