The tannin acid/chitosan/tripolyphosphate nanoparticles were encapsulated in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/poly-acrylic acid (PAA) electrospinning films by electrostatic spinning technology. To optimize the prepared condition, properties and morphology of nanoparticles were characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The optimized initial concentration of tannin, chitosan and tripolyphosphate solutions were 1, 1, 0.5mg/ml, respectively, with adding proportion for 5:5:1. The average diameter of tannin acid/chitosan/tripolyphosphate nanoparticles was ∼80nm. The electrospinning films showed an excellent water-resistant property with 0.5wt%N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide (MBA). Due to the antioxidant and antibacterial of tannic acid, the films possessed these properties. The antioxidant and antibacterial of these fibers significantly improved after in situ formation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Electrospun films were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).
