Green processing of porous chitin structures for biomedical applications combining ionic liquids and supercritical fluid technology

The application of green chemistry principles in the processing of materials for advanced technologies is a steadily increasing field of research. In this work porous chitin-based materials were developed by combining the processing of chitin using ionic liquids (ILs)as a green solvent together with...
