Antioxidant and Moisturizing Properties of Carboxymethyl Chitosan with Different Molecular Weights

Antioxidant and Moisturizing Properties of Carboxymethyl Chitosan with Different Molecular Weights

This research aimed to synthesize carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCH) from different molecular weights of chitosan including low MW (L, 50–190 kDa), medium MW (M, 210–300 kDa) and high MW (H, 310–375 kDa) on the antioxidant and moisturizing properties. The L-CMCH, M-CMCH and H-CMCH improved the water solu...
