Environmentally friendly strength bio-composite preparation by grafting of HEMA onto shrimp chitosan without destroying original microstructure to enrich their physicochemical, thermomechanical, and morphological properties
Shrimp shell is the most significant chitin source among bio-based materials since a huge quantity of crustacean wastes has been expelled out as a waste material from various shrimp processing industries/zones. The carapaces were treated by 2 M HCl for demineralization (DM), 2 N NaOH for deproteiniz...
