Comparison of the Degree of Acetylation of Chitin Nanocrystals Measured by Various Analysis Methods
Chitin and its derivate chitosan have versatile properties and have been used in various applications. One key parameter determining the functionality of chitin-based materials is the degree of acetylation (DA). For DA determination, NMR and FTIR spectroscopy are often considered to be the gold stan...
