| Abstract | Zwitterionic nanocrystals were prepared by TEMPO-mediated oxidation, partial deacetylation, and subsequent mechanical disintegration of -chitin. The pH dependence of the morphology, transparency, and viscosity of the nanocrystals were evaluated. After those reactions, the carboxylate and amino group contents of the chitin derivative were 0.45 and 1.26 mmol/g, respectively. After mechanical treatment, the water dispersion consisted of nanocrystals approximately 250 nm long and 10nm thick. Under acidic and basic conditions, the water dispersions were highly transparent. On the other hand, under neutral conditions, the dispersion was turbid due to the ionic interaction between the cationic and anionic groups on the nanocrystal surface. Although the surface zwitterionic nanocrystals collected from acidic and basic dispersion were randomly oriented due to electrostatic repulsions, nanocrystals formed aggregates in neutral water due to the cationic and anionic interaction between them. Nanocrystals in neutral water had higher viscosity than those in acidic and basic water, since ionic interaction caused nanocrystal networks to form in water. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
