Properties Of Esterified Κ-Carrageenan And Esterified Κ-Carrageenan-Zirconia Composite Material
A new method which does not involve the use of water as solvent for esterification of carrageenan, was developed to synthesize κ-carrageenan esters. Pyridine was used as solvent and catalyst in this synthesis. The effect of temperature and amount of decanoyl chloride to the esterification process wa...

A new method which does not involve the use of water as solvent for esterification of carrageenan, was developed to synthesize κ-carrageenan esters.
