TL;DR: In this paper, the solubility analysis, viscometry and light scattering of cellulose in 6-8 wt% NaOH/urea aqueous solutions were performed by using Bemliese® solvent.

TL;DR: High-flexibility, high-toughness double-cross-linked (DC) chitin hydrogels are prepared through a sequential chemical and physical cross-linkings strategy with relatively high stiffness, high toughness, and toughness recoverability.

TL;DR: In this article, a cross-linking quaternized cellulose and carboxymethyl cellulose with epichlorohydrin (ECH) in NaOH aqueous solution was used to synthesize hydrogels with pH and salt responsive properties.

TL;DR: The AU cellulose films are promising biobased packaging materials with high-oxygen barrier properties, and AU films prepared from solutions with high cellulose concentrations by regeneration in a solvent at low temperatures generally have low oxygen permeabilities.

TL;DR: These quaternized β‐chitin derivatives are found to exhibit excellent antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, and Rhizopus oryzae and imply that these novel polysaccharide‐based materials can be used as dressings for clinical skin regeneration, particularly for infected wounds.
