Bionanocomposites formed by in situ charged chitosan with clay
Yury Shchipunov, Nadya Ivanova and Vladimir Silant'ev
Bionanocomposites are formed through the electrostatic interactions of exfoliated clay nanoparticles initially dispersed in an aqueous solution with chitosan macromolecules that are gradually charged in the course of a progressive pH decrease by chemical acidulating agent to exclude the phase separation.
