With the objective of creating an electro-responsive and antimicrobial device suitable as delivery system for Rose Bengal (RB) to skin, a hybrid hydrogel combining Chitosan (CS) Graphene Oxide (GO) are designed, serving functional polymer support active filling element, respectively. The system, synthesized using tripolyphosphate crosslinker via ionic gelation, shows uniform homogeneous surface...

Calcium carbonate binder is well-known to reduce the carbon footprint and brings great economic environmental benefits. However, cementitious mechanism unclear due raw material diversity. We prepare calcium crystalline polymorphs-vaterite calcite in presence of sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), revealed. Herein, optimal colloidal structure with vaterite as binding phase obtained at 5% STPP 1d com...

Polyelectrolytic complexation has stood out due to its application in the development of drug delivery systems using biopolymers as raw materials. The formation complexes between cashew gum and chitosan can be intermediated by cross-links, mediated action sodium tripolyphosphate crosslinking agent. These polymers have been used nanotechnological formulations protect peptide drugs, such insulin,...
