Abstract
AbstractIn the present work the results of the study of oxidative destruction of chitosan effected by ozone and hydrogen peroxide are listed. The results obtained verify the rupture of 1,4‐β‐D‐glucoside bonds in macromolecule to be the basic process during amino groups of chitosan protection by acids. The rate of ozone with chitosan interaction depends on the concentration of ions in reaction mass. Destruction of chitosan by hydrogen peroxide leads to the formation of oligosaccharides in contrast to ozonolysis. Hydrogen peroxide oxidizes functional groups of chitosan only under tough conditions. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 81: 875–881, 2001
