Description
Chitosan Acetate (Water Soluble Chitosan Powder)
Chitosan Acetate, also known as water-soluble chitosan, is a premium derivative of chitosan designed to overcome the natural insolubility of native chitosan in water. By forming acetate salts, this biopolymer dissolves easily in neutral water solutions while retaining the powerful functional properties of chitosan.
Key Features
Water soluble easy to use in aqueous formulations
Excellent biocompatibility and biodegradability
Strong antimicrobial and film-forming properties
Derived from sustainable marine sources
Applications of Chitosan Acetate
Chitosan Acetate is widely used across industries where solubility and bioactivity are critical:
Food & Beverages: Used as a natural preservative and coating agent to extend shelf life of fruits, vegetables, and processed foods.
Agriculture: Applied as a foliar spray, seed coating, or plant growth stimulant, improving yield and disease resistance.
Cosmetics & Personal Care: Acts as a film-forming, moisturizing, and antimicrobial ingredient in skincare, haircare, and oral care formulations.
Pharmaceuticals & Biomedicine: Employed as a drug delivery carrier, wound healing material, and in controlled release formulations.
Water Treatment: Functions as a natural flocculant and antimicrobial agent in water purification.
Textiles & Paper: Enhances antimicrobial finishing, surface strength, and eco-friendly coatings.
Why Choose Chitosan Acetate?
Chitosan Acetate is preferred when direct water solubility is required, avoiding the need for acidic solvents that native chitosan demands. Its versatility, combined with sustainability and safety, makes it a sought-after ingredient in next-generation formulations for food preservation, agriculture, cosmetics, healthcare, and environmental applications.
