Di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (tBOC) is a covalent modification agent for hydroxyl groups (-OH) on the chitosan molecular chain. Di-tert-butyl dicarbonate selectively modifies chitosan and stabilizes the material structure through hydrophobic encapsulation. Di-tert-butyl dicarbonate reacts with the -OH groups of chitosan to form a hydrophobic layer, and in conjunction with triethylamine (TEA), removes trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) salts produced during the electrospinning process, preserving the nanofiber structure and high porosity of the membrane, and improving the materials cytocompatibility and mineralization-promoting ability. Di-tert-butyl dicarbonate can be used in research in the field of guided bone regeneration (GBR)[1].
