Chitosan - High-quality Polyionic Heteropolysaccharide | Versatile Reactivity, Liquid Form, High Nitrogen Content

We manufacture, export and supply Chitosan to our customers in Erode, Tamil Nadu, India. Chitosan is a polycationic heteropolysaccharide contains two monosaccharides, GlcNAc and D-glucosamine (GlcN), linked together by I -(1a 4) glycosidic bonds. The reaction of chitosan is more versatile compared to cellulose, due to presence of NH2 group. Chitosan is also available in liquid form i.e.Liquid ChitosanMost of the naturally occurring polymers are either neutral or acidic in condition includes, cellulose, dextran, pectin, alginic acid, agar but chitosan is the highly basic polysaccharide, with a nitrogen content varying between 5% and 8%, depending on the extent of deacetylation. The production of chitosan from chitin undergoes alkaline deacetylation (40a 45% sodium hydroxide, 120A C, 1a 3 h). The degree or percentage of deacetyation is increased with increasing temperature or NaOH concentration. It contains many chemical properties includes linear polyamine, Reactive amino groups, Reactive hydroxyl groups, chelates many transitional metal ions.
