Reusable and eco-friendly poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitin/nanocellulose based biopolymer composite films were synthesized and characterized. Maleic acid (MA) was used as a crosslinker of the biopolymer composite film. The effect of constituent materials of the biopolymer composite film and the pH on remo...
