title: Enhancement of Molecular Structural and Linear/Nonlinear Optical Features of Chitosan/Titanium Dioxide Nanocomposite Films for Food Packaging and Optoelectronic Applications
abstract: The current study aims to synthesize and characterize nanocomposite films of chitosan and titanium dioxide in terms of molecular structure, thermal and optical properties for use in food packaging and optoelectronic applications. The Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to study the interaction between the TiO2-NPs and chitosan and the analysis confirmed that TiO2-NPs interacted with chitosan and demonstrated good compatibility.
