Layer-by-layer assembly of food-grade alginate/chitosan nanolaminates: formation and physicochemical characterization

The alternate deposition of oppositely charged materials (layer-by-layer technique) is an effective approach to functionalize materials. Biopolymer-based nanolaminates obtained by the layer-by-layer technique can also be used to change the surface properties of food products or food contact material...
