Abstract

Diverse wet adhesives were prepared from oleic acid (OA), polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), and cis-1,4-polyisoprene (PI) at different ratios for attracting and trapping insects. The ratios of (PVP-PI)/OA were 1:2, 1:1 and 2:1 (g/g). The ratio between PVP and PI was 9 to 1 (g/g). The blends were irradiated with doses from 10 to 50 kGy. Adhesion properties, water sorption, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy were conducted. The results show that the adhesion of all wet adhesives was augmented by increasing the irradiation dose up to 20 kGy. The best wet adhesive composition was 2:1, which contained a high concentration of oleic acid. The wet adhesives of (PVP-PI)/OA were tested to attract and trap flies and mosquitoes.

Keywords: Adhesive; Cis-1,4-polyisoprene; Gamma irradiation; Oleic acid; Polyvinylpyrrolidone
