Modification of microstructural morphology and physical performance of chitosan films

Influence of Chitosan Concentration on Cell Viability and Proliferation in Vitro by Changing Film Topography

“…However, this possibility strongly disagrees with previous observations that film swelling after 72h reveal discrepancies with previously published results where these films reduce their swelling from one hour up until 48h (26). On the other hand, our data show that neither 1% nor 2% chitosan films were completely dissolved in the medium at acidic and neutral pH unlike previously reported (27).…”

Influence of hydrogen functionalization on mechanical properties of graphene and CNT reinforced in chitosan biological polymer: Multi-scale computational modelling

“…it is concluded that for R $ 1.0, the elastic modulus is within the range of the experimental data's [26,34]. Hence, this configuration, R $ 1.0, is used to find the variations of Cauchy stress, with the uniaxial strain applied to NRVEs.…”

A Novel Application of Oceanic Biopolymers — Strategic Regulation of Polymer Characteristics for Membrane Technology in Separation Engineering

“…Increasing added amounts of glutaraldehyde, methanol with ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and gallic acid also increased the mechanical strength. However, excess addition of cross-linker formed rigid and fragile structures on the chitosan membrane [25][26]53]. [54].…”
