The product results from a unique mix of ingredients. Scientists develop game-changing product that could compete with Ziploc ...

Further research is needed. More focus is required on improving the dispersion of nanofillers within the chitosan matrix, the researchers say. How these composite materials degrade is another area ...

Particle packing in the pellet matrix appears to be loose, allowing single particles to be released from the surface more easily. These findings are also supported by the SEM photographs. Based on ...

Chitosan was extracted from shrimp shells and dissolved into a concentrated solution. The surface of hBN was modified using VTS to improve compatibility with the polymer matrix. The success of the ...

A material known as chitosan, made from crustacean shells, has been used to substitute petroleum by-products in food packaging. The environment is seriously affected by the use of food packaing ...

But how healthy is the shell part of shellfish? While the shells themselves aren’t edible, chitosan is a supplement made from a substance found in the outer shells of crustaceans. It’s touted ...
