THE INFLUENCE OF PH ON THE ADSORPTION AND INTERACTION OF CHITOSAN WITH CELLULOSE

The pH dependent adsorption behavior of chitosan onto a cellulose model surface was studied by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D). The molecular level interactions between adsorbed chitosan layers were studied by atom force microscopy (AFM) colloidal probe force measurements in the...
