The low molecular weight chitosan produced in the present invention has a molecular weight range of about 0.20 to 2.0 dl / g, when expressed by an intrinsic viscosity [η]. Chitosan having this intrinsic viscosity does not have such a low molecular weight that it can be dissolved in distilled water as it is, and has a molecular weight not so high as that obtained by the method of Japanese Patent Publication No. 56-33401. When the content of amino groups is expressed as a colloid equivalent value (measured at pH 4), 4.0 meq / g chitosan or more,

The raw material chitosan is deacetylated chitin obtained by deproteinizing and decalcifying the shells and shells of arthropods such as crabs and shrimps, and can be used in any purity and molecular weight. However, it is preferable that the molecular weight is as low as possible. Therefore, it is preferable that the high molecular weight chitosan is previously made into a low molecular weight so that the intrinsic viscosity [η] is 5 dl / g or less.

Chitin is obtained by deproteinizing and decalcifying the shells of crabs, shrimps, etc. Chitosan is obtained by deacetylating this chitin. The molecular weight and degree of deacetylation of chitosan thus obtained are It depends on the processing method. In addition, since the powder is large and difficult to pulverize, it is in the form of coarse particles, fine powder, or fibre,
When lowering the molecular weight, it is difficult to control the molecular weight and the content ratio of amino groups. Therefore, once chitosan is made into a solution using an acid and then suspended by adding an alkali to this, chitosan with a fine and uniform particle size is obtained. When the reaction is carried out, the reaction is sufficiently carried out, and it becomes easy to control the molecular weight and the content ratio of amino groups.

In this case, chitosan obtained from the shell of crab, shrimp, etc. has a high molecular weight, so that it can be made only at a concentration of about 0.5 to 1% by weight, and therefore it takes about 1 to 3 hours to dissolve it. However, the entrainment energy becomes large, and a large reaction vessel is required to further reduce the molecular weight of chitosan. Therefore, 2 to 10% by weight of chitosan was prepared by lowering the molecular weight of chitosan in advance so that the intrinsic viscosity [η] becomes 5 dl / g or less.
It is possible to dissolve at a certain concentration for about 5 to 10 minutes, and then suspend in an alkali and add hydrogen peroxide to lower the molecular weight, so that low molecular weight chitosan can be efficiently obtained, which is preferable. .

As a method of reducing the molecular weight of chitosan in advance, the above-mentioned known method can be adopted. From the viewpoint of efficiency, the method of pretreatment with hydrogen peroxide is particularly preferable. In addition, the lowering of the molecular weight as the pretreatment has an intrinsic viscosity of 5 dl / g or less, preferably about 1 to 3 dl / g.

As the acid used to dissolve chitosan, any acid can be used as long as it can dissolve chitosan, such as acetic acid and hydrochloric acid, and it is used as an aqueous solution, but an acid that is not decomposed by hydrogen peroxide is preferable. The acid concentration of the acid solution that dissolves chitosan is 0.05 to 20% by weight, preferably 0.5 to 10% by weight, and the concentration of chitosan that is dissolved in it is 0.05 to 20% by weight,
It is preferably about 0.5 to 10% by weight.

The acid solution in which chitosan is dissolved is preferably filtered to remove insoluble matter prior to addition of alkali. The method of removing the insoluble matter is not particularly limited, but a method of performing filtration with a stainless steel wire mesh or the like is suitable because the viscosity of the solution is high.

Hydrogen peroxide is added to the chitosan suspension thus produced to lower the molecular weight of chitosan. The conditions for lowering the molecular weight are not particularly limited, but a pH range of 7 to 12 and a temperature range of 40 to 90 ° C. are desirable to obtain white powder of low molecular weight chitosan.

The amount of hydrogen peroxide added is 0.05 to 1 g per 1 g of chitosan,
The amount is preferably about 0.1 to 0.3 g, and if this is added all at once, problems such as foaming and alteration of chitosan will occur, so it is desirable to add continuously or intermittently. The addition rate of hydrogen peroxide at this time is 0.01 to 1 g / min, preferably 0.05 to 0.5 g / min, and it is desirable to add at least 4 g / min. The reaction for lowering the molecular weight is 0.5 with stirring.
The low molecular weight chitosan can be obtained by performing the treatment for -5 hours, preferably 1-3 hours.
