Specification: Food Grade Chitosan
Chitosan Chitosan, a type of polysaccharide, is the production of deacetylated chitin from the shells of snow crab, which is also called chionoecetes opilio. Chitosan is odorless, tasteless off-white powder, slightly soluble in wate, hardly soluble in ethanol. The solubility of chitosan is determined by its degree of deacetylation, viscosity, and molecular weight. Higher degree of deacetylation, smaller molecular weight and less viscosity will lead to better solubility. Chitosan has good adsorbability, permeability, flexibility, hygroscopicity, biodegradability, antibacterial and moisturizing properties. It can be used in many fields.
Food filler, thickener, stabilizer, decolorizer, flavor thickener.
Hair fixative, hair conditioner, skin care agent, moisturizer, soap, etc., to prevent tooth decay, prevent periodontitis, and remove bad breath, etc.
It can be used as a seed treatment to increase the yield of wheat by 10%-30%, improve the soil, and be used as a biological pesticide to prevent rice blast, sheath blight, pesticides, herbicides, fish feed, etc.
Improve human immunity, anti-cancer, anti-cancer, absorb heavy metals and pigments in the human body, and have a significant auxiliary effect on the treatment of diarrhea and gastrointestinal diseases.
