Effects of Monocarboxylic Acids and Potassium Persulfate on Preparation of Chitosan Nanoparticles

In this research, we studied the preparation of nanochitosan from the addition of potassium persulfate as an initiator for monomer polymerization and monocarboxylic acid—namely acetic acid, lactic acid, and formic acid—to a chitosan solution. To obtain the dried form of chitosan nanoparticles, we in...
