Water Soluble Chitosan is a derivative of chitosan that has been transformed through carboxylation. This process makes it freely soluble in water and gives it a stable character. Water Soluble Chitosan has excellent properties such as moisture absorption, moisture retention, opsonization, and bacteria inhibition.

These properties make Water Soluble Chitosan applicable to a wide range of cosmetics, including emollient cream, shower gel, cleaning cream, mousse, advanced ointment frost, emulsion, and colloid cosmetics. It is also applicable as a moisturizing and antistaling agent for food, fruits, and vegetables. Additionally, it can be used as a flocculant for sewage treatment, a drug sustained release agent, a nontoxic adhesive, and an auxiliary for dyeing & printing and paper making.
