Due to its excellent water-solubility, moisturizing, emulsifying, and film-forming properties, carboxymethyl chitosan is often used as a functional ingredient in cosmetics.
The viscosity of carboxymethyl chitosan aqueous solution is higher than that of other humectants with the same concentration, and its performance is comparable to that of expensive biopolymer hyaluronic acid. It is very stable in a wide pH range, even under high temperature and continuous heating, especially suitable for Used in cleanser, facial cleanser and other cosmetics.
Carboxymethyl chitosan also makes hair soft, shiny, and elastic, preventing split ends and breakage. Xie Fang and others made their own gel water added with carboxymethyl chitosan. After preliminary trial, they found that it has good effect, natural luster, no dust suction, no stickiness, no peculiar smell, easy to wash off, good hygroscopicity, moisturizing Sex and styling hair care.
Carboxymethyl chitosan has good biocompatibility, degradability, hemostasis, promoting healing and good bacteriostasis, and can be used as a toothpaste formula ingredient to achieve oral care.
Carboxymethyl chitosan can also be used as a UV absorber. Yu Shujuan et al. grafted 2,4-dihydroxybenzophenone UV absorber functional monomer onto carboxymethyl chitosan through molecular design, and the grafted product It has strong UV absorption at 240-400 nm, and has the maximum UV absorption at 332 nm, and the product has good photostability. It is expected to be used as a sunscreen with excellent UV absorption and high safety in cosmetics.
Carboxymethyl chitosan can also be compounded with other materials as a new type of injectable soft tissue filling material, which has good biocompatibility and can promote the growth of fibroblasts, and can be used in the plastic and cosmetic industry.
