Konjac, biodegradable polymers

Other biodegradable polymers include Konjac, a water-soluble natural polysaccharide produced by FMC Chitin, another polysaccharide that is insoluble in water and Chitosan, which is soluble in water. Chitin is found in insects and in shellfish. Chitosan can be formed from chitin and is also found in fungal cell waUs. Chitin is used in many biomedical applications, including dialysis membranes, bacteriostatic agents, and wound dressings. Other applications include cosmetics, water treatmenfi adhesives, and fungi-cides. y... [Pg.58]
