Brief introduction
Chitosan is a derivative produced by removing the acetyl group from chitin under strong alkaline conditions. It is insoluble in water, soluble in most dilute acids, and can be absorbed and biodegraded by the human body.
Chitosan is a primary derivative of chitin. Its chemical structure is a cationic high molecular alkaline polysaccharide polymer, and it has unique physical and chemical properties and biological activation functions.
Products can be widely used in cosmetics, food, medicine, health care, bioengineering and other fields.
