In this review, a number of systems are described to demonstrate the effect of polyelectrolyte
chain stiffness (persistence length) on the coacervation phenomena, after we briefly review …

In the present work chitosan–silver (CS/Ag) nanocomposites, either in the form of
nanoparticles (AgNP) or as ionic dendritic structures (Ag+), are synthesized by a simple and …

Chitosan, a load-bearing biomacromolecule found in the exoskeletons of crustaceans and
insects, is a promising biopolymer for the replacement of synthetic plastic compounds. Here …

This study focused on the structural, optical and electrical features of chitosan organic layer
obtained by spin coating technique both on glass and n-Si substrates. XRD results indicated …

Image analysis techniques have often been chosen as fundamental tools for evaluating the
surface and/or structure of organic and inorganic materials over a broad range of scales. In …

In this work simple fabrication of nanocomposites based on Chitosan, silver nanoparticles
and clay were investigated. The control on oxidative polymerization for aniline has been …

Chitosonic® Acid, carboxymethyl hexanoyl chitosan, is a novel chitosan material that has
recently been accepted by the Personal Care Products Council as a new cosmetic …

Self-assembly processes are ubiquitous in natural systems, and their study can provide
insight into the harnessing of unique properties for engineering of new materials from the …

Biomacromolecule has been widely used as biomedical material. Because different
biomacromolecules possess different properties, how to exhibit the respective advantages of …

We report a new class of dipeptide dendritic structures fabricated on the surface of mica via
spin casting and the conditions required to achieve them. Both their structure and formation …
