Abstract: | In this work, we have investigated the synthesis and characterization of a proton conductor based on alginic acid and poly (1-vinylimidazole). The polymer network was obtained by mixing alginic acid and poly (1-vinylimidazole) at various stoichiometric ratios. The polymer electrolytes were characterized by elemental analysis and FT-IR spectroscopy. Invertase was entrapped in the polymer networks during complex formation. Additionally, the maximum reaction rate and Michaelis-Menten constant were investigated for the immobilized invertase. The temperature and pH optimization, operational stability and shelf life of the polymer network were examined. |
