Highly Stable, Edible Cellulose Films Incorporating Chitosan Nanoparticles

: The need for biodegradable polymers for packaging has fostered the development of novel, biodegradable polymeric materials from natural sources, as an alternative to reduce amount of waste and environmental impacts. The present investigation involves the synthesis of chitosan nanoparticles–carbox...
