“…Dielectric relaxation spectroscopy (DRS) can be used to investigate molecular motions in a wide frequency range. DRS studies on different polysaccharides have been reported in the literature, but mainly for secondary relaxations (Einfeldt, Meibner, & Kwasniewski, 2001;Jafarpour, Dantras, Boudet, & Lacabanne, 2007;Kaminski et al, 2009;Kusumi, Teramoto, & Nishio, 2011;McBrierty, Keely, Coyle, Xu, & Vij, 1996;Roig, Dantras, Dandurand, & Lacabanne, 2011;Seymour, Weinhold, & Haynes, 1979;Sousa, Bras, Veiga, & Ferreira, http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.carbpol.2014.078 0144-8617/© 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
