A method of making a cellulose-nanoclay hemostatic nanocomposite fiber, including the steps of preparing a homogenous cellulose solution including cellulose and a room temperature ionic liquid, preparing a nanoclay suspension including halloysite and distilled water, electrospinning the cellulose solution into a first bath including the nanoclay suspension, transferring solidified cellulose-halloysite fibers from the first bath to a second bath including ethanol and distilled water, removing the solidified cellulose-halloysite fibers from the second bath, and freeze-drying the solidified cellulose-halloysite fibers.

A copper ion-complexed poly gamma-glutamic acid (γ-PGA)/chitosan (CS)/cotton blended antibacterial knitted fabric and a preparation method includes chitosan that is crosslinked with poly gamma-glutamic acid, then a copper-ammonia complex ion solution is added to prepare a spinning solution. The spinning solution is wet spun and then stretched, washed with water, finished, washed with water, and dried to get copper ion-complexed poly gamma-glutamic acid/chitosan composite fibers. The blended antibacterial knitted fabric is then prepared by using cotton fiber yarns and the composite fibers. There is a very high coordination coefficient between carboxyl groups of gamma-PGA and amino groups of CS, so the structure is stable. Poly-gamma glutamic acid can be used as water-retaining agent and heavy metal ion adsorbent, which can increase the loading rate of copper ions.
