Synthesis and Characterization of O-Acetyl-chitosan Acetic Ester

A novel amphipathic chitosan derivative, O-acetyl-chitosan acetic ester (ACHA), was synthesized by the reaction of chitosan with acetic acid in the presence of thionyl chloride. The physicochemical properties of ACHA were characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR, TGA, and XRD. The yield (Y) of ACHA was 79.4%,...
