Abstract:APPLICATION OF A MATHEMATICAL MODEL TO THE RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF AGAROSE-GUAR GUM MIXED GELS.Certain biopolymers are capable of forming physically crosslinked gels in aqueous medium, stabilized by forces such as Coulombic, charge transfer, hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole, van der Waals, and hydrophobic interactions. The mathematical description of these physical networks are difficult, but should contribute to a better understanding of the gelling process. The Clark and Ross-Murphy model was applied to exp… Show more
