When making nanocomposites, there is a big challenge to obtain both functional and mechanical enhancement. In this study, a new in situ polymerization methodology for the incorporation of surface modified silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in a thermoplastic polyurethane matrix was developed. AgNPs with contents ranging from 0 to 1.5 wt % were used. A double functionalization of the nanoparticles with oleic acid was performed, which lead to a reaction of carboxylic acid groups in the nanoparticle's surface with isocyanate groups of the 4,4-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate monomer as corroborated from the Raman results. The successful incorporation of the nanoparticles was verified with EDS, TGA, and Raman measurements. Thermal properties of nanocomposites were investigated by DSC. AgNPs made positive impact in two ways: first, increased more than twice the elastic modulus, as studied via nanoindentation measurements and second, based on the inhibition zone method, great bactericidal effectiveness for nanocomposites containing 1.5 wt % AgNPs was observed for Escherichia coli.
