2. Chitosan and chitosan/wheat gluten blends : properties of extrudates, solid films and bio-foams
Abstract : This thesis presents four different studis describing the characteristics and processing opportunities of two widely available biopolymers: chitosan and wheat gluten. The interest in these materials is mainly because they are bio-based and obtained as co- or by-products in the fuel and food sectorIn the first study, high solids content chitosan samples (60 wt.
