Synthesis and characterization of semi-interpenetrating networks of chitosan and poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone)

A semi-interpenetrating networks (semi-IPNs) based on chitosan and poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) were prepared in order to achieve better mechanical properties. The samples were characterized by FTIR, SEM, DMA analysis and the swelling behavior at different pHs (2.0-8.0). The semi-IPNs composition...
