Effect of deacetylation conditions on synthesis of chitosan using shrimp type "penaeus monodon"

Adikary, SU; Samarasekara, AMPB; Unagolla, JM; Wijesinghe, WARP [Conference-Extended-Abstract]

In this study synthesis of chitosan from shrimp type penaeus monodon and effect of degree of deacetylation conditions were studied. Chitin was extracted from shrimp shells and deacetylation process was done to synthesize ...
Extraction of photo activators using natural resources to develop photodegradable polymer products

Samarasekara, AMPB; Sumudumalie, HDG; Sajeewani, KHR [Conference-Abstract]

Photodegradable polymer products are developed to control the plastic waste generation and better for the environment. These polymers can break down through the action of ultraviolet (UV) light, which degrades the chemical bond ...
