What is Chitosan Fiber in Textile Applications about?

Chitosan is a natural biopolymer derived from chitin that has several advantages for medical textile applications. It is biocompatible, biodegradable, antimicrobial, and accelerates wound healing. Chitosan fibers can be produced through wet spinning but have low mechanical properties. Research aims to modify chitosan to improve its processability into fibers and increase fiber tensile strength through blending with other natural polymers like cellulose and silk fibroin. Chitosan fibers show promise for uses
