In this research, we studied the physicochemical features of dialdehydecarboxymethylcellulose (DCMC) samples generated by oxidizing pure sodium carboxymethylcellulose (NaCMC) samples in order to acquire novel medications for the treatment of different skin wounds and post-operative procedures. Under ideal circumstances, the mass ratios of sericin (SS) and DCMC containing 70% aldehyde groups are 1:0.2, 1:0.4, 1:0.6, 1:0.8, and 1:1. Infrared (IR) spectroscopy was used to evaluate the samples in the proportions, and the physicochemical characteristics of the samples were investigated.
