Development of new poly(ϵ-caprolactone)/chitosan films

This study reports for the first time the production of poly(ε-caprolactone)/chitosan (PCL/CHT) films by solvent casting using a mixture of formic acid/acetone (70:30 vol%). Both uncrosslinked and crosslinked films with the natural crosslinker genipin were developed. The mechanical properties of the...
