© 2020 by the authors. This research aimed to synthesize carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCH) from different molecular weights of chitosan including low MW (L, 50-190 kDa), medium MW (M, 210-300 kDa) and high MW (H, 310-375 kDa) on the antioxidant and moisturizing properties. The L-CMCH, M-CMCH and H-CMCH...
