Approach on chitosan/virgin coconut oil-based emulsion matrices as a platform to design superabsorbent materials
Abstract
The design of innovative pharmaceutical products, able to reach unexplored market niches, requires natural materials use with improved swelling and moisture properties. Herein, chitosan (CHT), a natural polymer, was combined with virgin coconut oil (VCO), a resource extracted from coconut kernels, to develop emulsion-based films for biomedical purposes. The film's properties were tuned by changing VCO concentrations, and the structural,...
