Interfacial properties of chitosan lactate at the liquid/air interface by G. I. Kovtun

“…The reason for such behavior is the possibility of changing the molar surface area of the polyelectrolyte at the interface dependent on the amount of adsorption and its structural properties. Attempt of theoretical description of the viscoelasticity modulus within the framework of model accounting mono- or bilayer adsorption did not lead to a satisfactory result, possibly due to barrier adsorption mechanism of chitosan. …”
