High Molecular Weight Food Grade Chitosan Deacetylated Chitin , Food Thickening Agent
Quick Detail:
Chitosan series is extracted from chitin, insoluble in water but soluble in dilute acid and absorbed by human body. As the first derivate, it's chemical constitution is macromolecule alkalescent polysaccharide polymer with cation. It has peculiar physical, chemical properties and bioactive function.
Description:
Chitosan is extracted from crab shell or shrimp shell.
It is white or off-white amorphous translucent powder or small flake, and it is insoluble in water or alkali solution, but is soluble in most organic acid and part inorganic acid
General name: chitosan; deacetylated chitin; poly glucosamine; Kitosan
Scientific name: β-1,4-poly-D-glucosamine
Molecular formula : (C6H11NO4)n
CAS No. 9012-76-4
HS No. 2922 5000.
Applications:
1. High moleculay weight chitosan means that this kind of chitosan has higher viscosity and higher molecular weight than general chitosan.
2. Viscosity of ordinary chitosan is less than 200mps.s, but viscosity of high viscosity chitosan is about 500-5000 mpa.s.
3. High viscosity can be used in water treatment field, food thickening agent, gel product, natural glue products, chitosan film, etc.
