Description
Quaternary Chitosan Supplier (Shellfish-Based) – Water-Soluble Antimicrobial Chitosan for Pharma, Cosmetics & Industrial Use
Still using standard chitosan that only works in acidic conditions?
That’s limiting your product performance.
Traditional chitosan:
- loses effectiveness in neutral pH
- has limited solubility
- weak antimicrobial consistency
Quaternary Chitosan (QCS / Trimethyl Chitosan) solves this.
- Fully water-soluble across wide pH
- Strong antimicrobial activity
- High-performance cationic polymer
Quaternary Chitosan (Shellfish Origin) is an advanced quaternized chitosan derivative produced through chemical modification (quaternization), resulting in a permanently charged cationic polymer.
This allows it to:
- remain soluble in acidic, neutral, and alkaline conditions
- deliver strong antimicrobial and antibacterial performance
- enhance drug permeability and bioavailability
If you are searching for:
- quaternary chitosan supplier
- trimethyl chitosan bulk
- antimicrobial chitosan polymer
This product is built for industrial, pharmaceutical, and formulation-driven buyers.
