Description
Chitosan is a linear polysaccharide composed of randomly distributed β-(1-4)-linked D-glucosamine (deacetylated unit) and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (acetylated unit). It is produced by treating shrimp and other crustacean shells with the alkali sodium hydroxide. This ingredient is a versatile functional component used across various industries. For purchasers, it is crucial to consider the degree of deacetylation and molecular weight, which determine its solubility and functional properties. The product is supplied as a powder, ensuring ease of dosing and storage. Complete documentation is available, confirming compliance with quality and safety standards.
Applications
Applied in agriculture as a seed treatment and biopesticide. In winemaking, it is used as a fining agent to prevent spoilage.
