Dialdehyde cellulose nanofibrils (DACNF) and Polyquaternium-10 (PQ: chloro-2-hydroxy-3-(trimethylamino) propyl polyethylene glycol cellulose) have become increasingly favored as antibacterial substances due to their advantageous characteristics. DACNF exhibits exceptional mechanical properties and biocompatibility, whereas PQ demonstrates a positive charge that enhances its antibacterial activity. Combined in a DACNF/PQ mixture, they provide an excellent template material for preparing and stabilizing ultra-fine (~ 10.
