The effect of complexing agents on adsorption and desorption of Cu(II) from aqueous solutions using chitosan was investigated. Three complexing agents were used including EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid), citric acid, and tartaric acid. It was shown that the isotherm data could be ยฎtted by the
The mechanical properties of extruded mixtures of Agar and water were measured for two formulations under slightly different extrusion conditions. The extrudate exhibits high tensile strength when moisture content is 30 wt % and very high elongation (> 2000%) when moisture content is 60 wt %. Electr
Silk fibroin/chitosan blend films were prepared by the solvent casting method. Miscibility between silk fibroin and chitosan was examined by dynamic mechanical thermal analysis. Structural changes of silk fibroin by the addition of chitosan were investigated by IR spectroscopy. The conformational tr
