Chitin is a linear amino polysaccharide, poly(2-(acetylamino)-2-deoxy-D-glucose), obtained from crustacean biomass. It is manufactured via ionic liquid process (DOI: 10.1039/C003583A) without degradation of the natural polymer (highest available MW, narrow molecular weight distribution, %DA of >97%).
