Chitosan is an aminoglucan that has many applications in various fields. For most of the purposes, it is usually dissolved in aqueous solution of acetic acid. However the presence of acid is inadequate in applying the chitosan solutions as cosmetics and food additives for which chitosan should be effectively used. In this study, chitosan is emulsified in an acid-free aqueous medium by the aid of nonionic surfactants and ion exchange resin. The solution properties of the emulsions are studied by DLS and other methods.
