Burn injuries are the most severe and physically debilitating injuries affecting almost every
organ system resulting in high mortality and morbidity. Excision of early burn wounds and …

Increasing economic and environmental concerns arising from the extensive exploration
and dependence on fossil fuel-based materials have encouraged the search for eco-friendly …

We selected eight kinds of chitosan fibers to characterize and analyze their composition,
surface morphology, and mechanical properties. Crucially, we investigated their …

With the rapid development of the 5G era and smart homes, self-healing and self-powered
smart fire sensors are considered a promising solution for emerging applications, but …

Adipic acid was evaluated as a novel solvent for wet spinning of chitosan fibers. A solvent
with two carboxyl groups could act as a physical crosslinker between the chitosan chains …

This work provides a simple method for the preparation of thermoplastic chitosan using the
most common dilute inorganic and organic acids in aqueous solutions, namely hydrochloric …

Chitosan (CS) fibers have been applied in various fields due to their biocompatibility,
biodegradability, and antibacterial properties. However, weak mechanical properties remain …

The hemostatic properties of surface modified chitosan nonwoven had been investigated.
The succinyl groups, carboxymethyl groups and quaternary ammonium groups were …

The aim of this study was to prepare chitosan (CS) filaments incorporated with N-acetyl-D-
Glucosamine (GlcNAc), using the wet spinning method, in order to combine the GlcNAc …

Increasing demand for packaging has motivated research into sustainable materials to
prevent continued plastic pollution. Materials based on polysaccharide polyelectrolyte …
