Properties: 

Chitosan quaternary ammonium salt is a high-grade chitosan derivative obtained by chemical modification of chitosan. Its full name is hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride chitosan. Chitosan quaternary ammonium salt is non-toxic, biocompatible, biodegradable, and has antibacterial properties. Its antibacterial activity is related to the degree of substitution.

Application:

Chitosan quaternary ammonium salt can be used as a new type of biological packaging material, protein drug carrier, gene delivery carrier, enzyme immobilization agent, food preservative, natural clarifier for alcoholic beverages and traditional Chinese medicine, processing agent for digital printing fabrics, natural antibacterial agent, conditioner and moisturizer for hair care products, etc.

Package and Storage:

1KG/bag or customized package. Sealed in dry, room Temperature
