Modification of chitosan for preparation of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide/ O-nitrochitosan) interpenetrating polymer network

An interpenetrating polymer network (IPN), N-isopropylacrylamide/O-nitrochitosan (NONK) was developed in the presence of ammonium persulfate using solution polymerization technique. O-nitrochitosan (ONK) was synthesized from chitosan, before it was further reacted with N-isopropylacrylamide. A new v...
