Water sorption, antimicrobial activity, and thermal and mechanical properties of chitosan/clay/glycerol nanocomposite films
Chitosan-based nanocomposites films with different clay loadings (0, 5, 10, 15 wt %), with (10, 20, 30 wt%) and without glycerol as plasticizer, were prepared by solution casting. The effects of the addition of clay and glycerol on the thermal, mechanical, water absorption, and antimicrobial activit...
