A novel natural polymer blend, namely, a semi-interpenetrating polymer network (semi-IPN) composed of crosslinked chitosan with glutaraldehyde and silk fibroin was prepared. The FTIR spectra of the semi-IPN manifested that the chitosan and silk fibroin had a strong hydrogen-bond interaction and form

A novel semi-interpenetrating polymer network (semi-IPN) membrane composed of crosslinked chitosan(cr-CS) and poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) was prepared. Evidence from infrared spectra proved the formation of polyelectrolyte complex through electrostatic interaction between NH / 3 groups from CS and COO
## Abstract Semiβinterpenetrating polymer network hydrogels with different compositions of chitosan (Cs), acrylic acid, and citraconic acid were synthesized via freeβradical polymerization with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as a crosslinker. The variations of the swelling percentages of the hydrog
