Carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCH) from different sources (shrimp, crab and squid) and molecular sizes (polymer and oligomer) was synthesized via carboxymethylation with monochloroacetic acid (MCA) in isopropyl alcohol (IPA) under alkaline condition. Next, chitosan and CMCH films were prepared and their...
