Surface charge on chitosan/cellulose nanowhiskers composite via functionalized and untreated carbon nanotube
Improvement in chitosan (CS) was achieved by solution casting using cellulose nanowhiskers (CNWs) and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) to synthesize CS/CNW functionalized/treated MWCNTs (CS/CNWs/f-MWCNTs) and CS/CNW untreated MWCNTs (CS/CNWs/Un-MWCNTs) nanocomposite films. A comparison between ef...
