Abstract
Structural features of heat-treated chitosan films cast from polymer solutions in formic and acetic acids were studied by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray analysis. It was shown that thermally modified films acquire a less crystalline but more homogeneous (at the morphological level) structure. Additional structural rearrangements take place in chitosan during pervaporation separation of water-isopropanol mixtures due to swelling of the...
