A recent article in the Journal of Polymer Science explores the development of chitosan–silanized hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) nanocomposite films, focusing on their structural, mechanical, and ...

A new study shows that chitosan helps rats expel ingested microplastics more efficiently, opening the door to dietary interventions that could reduce the health risks of plastic buildup in the ...

Polysaccharides, such as chitosan, exhibit poor mechanical and barrier characteristics in their current form. Consequently, compared to common plastic films, using materials based on biopolymers in ...
