(Top) Schematic representation of plasticization theories. (Middle) Workflow of the process used to elucidate the plasticization theory present in chitosan systems using a combination of molecular-level analysis and polymer property characterization. (Bottom) Chemical structures of the molecules and polymer used in these processes. The structure of chitosan is shown as the protonated ammonium ion to reflect its state when exposed in acetic acid in the films.
