Biocomposites: Mechanically Robust, Electrically Conductive Biocomposite Films Using Antimicrobial Chitosan‐Functionalized Graphenes (Part. Part. Syst. Charact. 8/2013). (19th August 2013) - Yadav, Santosh Kumar
Abstract An effective way of covalently functionalizing graphene with a biopolymer via nitrene chemistry is demonstrated by Yoong Ahm Kim, Jae Whan Cho, and co‐workers on page 721. The mechanical and electrical properties of the biocomposite film are tuned by varying the content of functionalized graphene. The high antimicrobial activity of the biofunctionalized graphene may be due to the presence of biopoly mer on edges of the graphene.
