Abstract

See full text

Processes for the preparation of polyglucosamine derivatives, e.g., hydroxypropyl chitosan and carboxymethyl chitosan, are disclosed. The polyglucosamine derivatives can be prepared in a covalently bonded form using a dilute caustic medium. Strong bases and undesirable water-immiscible organic solvents can be avoided. The covalently bonded derivatives dissolve into the dilute caustic medium upon formation. Compositions containing the derivatives and uses for the derivatives are also disclosed.
