Chitosan powder Raw Materials CAS 9012-76-4
Product Overview:
Chitosan powder is commonly referred to as Chitosan powder, which is also called chitosan, deacetylated chitin, deacylated chitin, soluble chitin, and soluble chitin. Almost insoluble in water, but soluble in organic acids such as formic acid, acetic acid, benzoic acid and naphthenic acid, as well as dilute inorganic acids. Chitosan is a white or off-white translucent flake solid with a pearly luster. Tasteless, non-toxic and easy to degrade, it is a rare natural cationic polyelectrolyte. A polysaccharide obtained by hydrolysis of a strong base or enzymolysis to remove the acetyl group from the chitin glycogroup. Chitosan is a biocompatible, bacterial-resistant, biodegradable polyelectrolyte that has a wide range of biomedical and industrial applications. Its chemical properties and low toxicity can be used as a component of drugs, in gene transfer systems, as a biodegradable membrane, and as a skeleton in tissue engineering.

Uses and synthesis of Chitosan powder
Chitosan powder is commonly referred to as Chitosan powder, which is also called chitosan, deacetylated chitin, deacylated chitin, soluble chitin, and soluble chitin.

Applications/Functions of Chitosan powder
- Chitosan powder is used as a preservative and thickener.
- Chitosan is a natural, non-toxic fresh-keeping agent and flocculant in the food industry, and it can adsorb cadmium, mercury, copper and other heavy metal ions in water
- Chitosan is used as a treatment agent and precipitation agent for industrial wastewater and urban sewage
- Chitosan powder is mainly used in food, medicine, agricultural seed, daily chemical industry, industrial wastewater treatment and so on. Chitosan oligosaccharides have the functions of improving immunity, activating cells, preventing cancer, lowering blood lipids, lowering blood pressure, anti-aging, regulating the body environment, etc., and can be used in medicine, health care and food fields.
Physicochemical Property of Chitosan powder
White amorphous transparent substance, about 9% nitrogen, tasteless and odorless.
Production methodprocess of Chitosan powder
Chitosan powder is prepared by using chitosan in the shell of low animals and plants widely existing in nature, such as arthropods (shrimp, crab), as raw material, and deacetylated by alkali and heating.
