Preparation, characterization and application in environmental protection of low-molecular-weight chitosan: a review
Abstract Chitosan is a biopolymer derived from chitin, which is the second most abundant and renewable polymer in nature after cellulose. Low-molecular-weight chitosan (LMWC) is the degradation product of chitosan through depolymerization. Compared with conventional chitosan, LMWC is considered as o...
