Evaluation of Rheological Properties and Swelling Behaviour of Sonicated Scleroglucan Samples

Evaluation of Rheological Properties and Swelling Behaviour of Sonicated Scleroglucan Samples

Scleroglucan is a natural polysaccharide that has been proposed for various applications. However there is no investigation on its property variations when the molecular weight of this polymer is reduced. Scleroglucan was sonicated at two different polymer concentrations for different periods of tim...
