Abstract
Pyrenesulfonylchloride (PSC) was prepared and convalently bound to glutaraldehyde (Glu) crosslinked chitosan (CS) films by a post modification method. The monomer emission of pyrene (Py) immobilized on the CS films was weak both at dry and wet state if super-pure water was used to wet the films. However, upon addition of salts or replacing the super-pure water with tap water the monomer emission increased dramatically whereas the change in the excimer emission was hardly observed. Furthermore, the increasing process could last as long as 7 h. In contrast, the emission returned to the original intensity at once when the films were washed with super-pure water three to four times. The process could be repeated for at least five times.
