Chemical Modification and Processing of Chitin for Sustainable Production of Biobased Electrolytes

Chemical Modification and Processing of Chitin for Sustainable Production of Biobased Electrolytes

In the present work we report on the development of a novel and sustainable electrolyte based on chitin. Chitin biopolymer was carboxymethylated in simple, mild, and green conditions in order to fine-tune the final properties of the electrolyte. To this end, chitin was modified for various reaction...
