Summary: In recent years, there has been an increasing focus on natural polysaccharides due to their low cost, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. Quaternization is a modification method that enhances the solubility and antibacterial ability of natural polysaccharides. Water-soluble derivatives of cellulose, chitin, and chitosan have diverse applications in fields such as antibacterial products, drug delivery, wound healing, sewage treatment, and ion exchange membranes. By combining the inherent properties of these polysaccharides with quaternary ammonium groups, new products with multiple functions and properties can be obtained. This review summarizes the research progress in the applications of quaternized cellulose, chitin, and chitosan in the past five years and discusses the challenges and future perspectives in this promising field.

Summary: In this study, highly aromatic hyperbranched polyamide (HBPA) was synthesized and used as a modifier to enhance the physical performance of polylactic acid (PLA). The results showed that the addition of HBPA significantly improved the tensile strength and fracture energy of PLA. Polarized optical microscope images suggested that HBPA acted as a nucleating agent for PLA during crystallization, possibly due to the formation of hydrogen bonds and/or chemical crosslinking between HBPA and PLA.

Summary: Crosslinking affects the mechanical behavior and tissue metabolism of collagen-based tissues. Aging and diabetes alter the crosslinking type and density, thus changing tissue properties. High-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking and advanced-glycation end-products result in uniform deformation under daily activity, while low-connectivity enzymatic crosslinking does not. High-connectivity model displays more sliding, while AGEs induce instability in structures near the binding sites.
