TL;DR: In this paper, the thermal stability of the blended chitosan/agar (CS/AG) films was studied using thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) and the mechanical properties of the films showed a decrease in the tensile strength and elongation at break.

TL;DR: Graft copolymerization of sodium styrene sulfonate (SSS) onto electron beam (EB) irradiated polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) films was investigated to find out a simple preparation process for sulfonic acid proton exchange membranes with respect to monomer concentration, absorbed dose, temperature, film thickness and storage time.

TL;DR: In this article, a vanadium redox flow battery with carbon felt hosted graphene oxide (P-GO) was characterized and found displaying an improved electrocatalytic performance towards electrooxidation/electroreduction of vanadium ion pairs.

TL;DR: Gamma radiation-induced graft copolymerization of styrene onto poly(eth- ylene terephthalate) (PET) films was studied using simultaneous irradiation technique as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, the progress made in blending chitosan with synthetic and natural polymers is presented, and the versatility and unique characteristics, such as hydrophilicity, film-forming ability, biodegradability, biocompatibility, antibacterial activity and non-toxicity of chitosa have contributed to the successful development of various blends for medical, pharmaceutical, agricultural and environmental applications.
