Polysaccharide-based nanocomposites and their applications, Y. Zheng, J. Monty, R. J. Linhardt, Carbohydrate Research, 405, 23–32, 2015.
Abstract
Polysaccharide nanocomposites have become increasingly important materials over the past decade. Polysaccharides offer a green alternative to synthetic polymers in the preparation of soft nanomaterials. They have also been used in composites with hard nanomaterials, such as metal nanoparticles and carbon-based nanomaterials. This mini review describes methods for polysaccharide nanocomposite preparation and reviews the various types and diverse applications for these novel materials.;
