01 · THE CUSTOMER PROBLEM
Formulators need selected actives or fragrances to remain available longer instead of delivering all at once or degrading in the package.
Chitosan films, particles and gels provide multiple release-control levers through MW, DDA, crosslinking and matrix design.
Tunable films, particles and gels that can extend or sequence release of selected cosmetic ingredients.
02 · RECOMMENDED STARTING POINT
Start with the material designed for the decision.
Molecular weight, DDA, crosslinking and blend composition provide multiple tools for changing diffusion, erosion and active release.
Without the shell
Controlled fungal sourcing supports a traceable, non-animal supply strategy.
Specification engineered
MW, DDA, purity, charge density and format are selected around the target result.
Application ready
Powder is only the starting point; Mykito also develops films, fibers, gels, coatings and formulations.
One technical partner
Material selection, formulation support and the validation plan are connected from the first sample.
03 · PERFORMANCE TARGETS
Build toward outcomes a buyer can measure.
Sustained active delivery
Sustained active delivery can be developed by matching the chitosan specification, dose and application-ready format to the finished controlled release system.
Triggered release concepts
Triggered release concepts can be developed by matching the chitosan specification, dose and application-ready format to the finished controlled release system.
Longer surface residence
Longer surface residence can be developed by matching the chitosan specification, dose and application-ready format to the finished controlled release system.
04 · GO / NO-GO CRITERIA
Define the evidence before testing begins.
The first program is designed around three decision-making outputs—not an open-ended material trial.
Loading and dose uniformity
Release kinetics and stability
Finished-form sensory and efficacy
05 · FROM SAMPLE TO DECISION
A practical application program,
not a bag of powder.
Define
Agree on the function, baseline, constraints and measurable success criteria.
Screen
Select the MW, DDA, purity, dose and physical format that fit the application.
Validate
Test the winning system in the finished formulation, device, process or use environment.
Recommended first request: A controlled-release feasibility sample built around one priority active.
Start the Sample Brief06 · WHY CHITOSAN
Deposition + hydrated film formation
Cationic charge and interfacial adhesion can increase surface residence, while continuous polymer films support moisture management and active carrying.
There is no universal concentration. Grade and dose are screened against pH, interacting ingredients, process conditions and the target performance profile.
Appearance, sensory, stability, preservation and performance are validated in the finished cosmetic formula.
