Chitosan–Antipyrine Schiff Base Nanocomposites With ZnO or Ag Nanoparticles: Synthesis, Characterization, and Dye Adsorption With Preliminary Biological Assessment
A novel chitosan Schiff base derivative (CSB) was synthesized by chemically modifying chitosan with antipyrine. This modified matrix was subsequently used to prepare nanocomposites through the encapsulation of zinc oxide (CSB/ZnO) and silver (CSB/Ag) nanoparticles. Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), x‐...
