Abstract: A green cross-linking and straightforward method to physically trap inert fibers in a network of chitosan was implemented. The cross-linking reaction involved a biosourced and biocompatible cross-linker [tannic acid (TA)] and mild conditions in water (pH = 8.5, O 2 bubbling, 60 °C, 3 h). The steric hindrance of TA led to a low but effective cross-linking rate leaving parts of primary amines of chitosan available for postmodification such as the grafting of quaternary ammoniums for antibacterial purposes.

“…Fabrics were coated by immersion in a solution of TA acr 10eq at 100 g.L 1 in ethanol for 3 h at room temperature under stirring. The two types of fabrics used were inert fibers (raw PP) and fibers coated with chitosan (PP fibers are coated with chitosan, which is physically immobilized around the fibers by cross-linking with tannic acid [42]). Before being washed, samples were weighed, and the weight gain associated with it was 42-43% for both fabrics.…”
