Title Studies on Viscosity-Molecular Weight Relationship of
Chitosan Solutions
 
Creator Rao, D.G.
 
Subject 08 Physical Chemistry
 
Description

The viscosity of chitosan solutions in 1% acetic acid of various concentrations (0.25-1.0% by weight of chitosan) was measured by Light scattering method. The data were fitted to Mark-Houwink equation as n1 = 4.74 x 10-2 (MJ °'723 which helps evaluate the average molecular weight (weight average) of chitosan samples with a knowledge of their intrinsic viscosity.
