Sustainable, High-Performance, and Biodegradable Plastics Made from Chitin.

ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces, 2022
A high-performance biodegradable plastic was made from a chitin KOH/urea solution. The solution was transferred into a hydrogel by cross-linking using epichlorohydrin and ethanol immersion, and a chitin bioplastic was finally prepared by drying in a mold
