Chitosan is the second abundant biopolymer present on earth after cellulose. Chitosan is
extracted from the shells of shrimp and other crustaceans. Several methods were reported …

The deacetylated derivative of chitin ie chitosan is an advantageous and interesting
bioactive polymer. Despite its biodegradability, it consists of many reactive primary and …

Mechanical amorphization of three chitosan samples with high, medium, and low molecular
weight was studied. It is shown that there are no significant differences between the course …

Cellulose is the most abundant plant based biopolymer on earth which provides excellent
properties to polymer nanocomposites such as high mechanical properties, high strength …

Chitosan (CS), an amino polysaccharide, is a rigid polymer due to the availability of two
types of reactive primary and secondary hydroxyl groups (-OH). It is also biodegradable …

Starch is a renewable, biodegradable and low-cost natural biopolymer with high availability.
Starch was extracted from Solanum tuberosum (potatoes) and its preliminary properties …
