A Novel Approach to Design Chitosan-Polyester Materials for Biomedical Applications

A novel approach to design chitosan-polyester materials is reported. The method is based on mechanical activation and effective intermixing of the substrates under high pressure and shear deformation in the course of solid-state reactive blending. The marked departure of this approach from previous...
