Interaction and phase transformation of polysaccharides with shear flow of mixtures

The article is devoted to the Interaction and phase transformation of polysaccharides. It investigated such interaction of polysaccharides, for example, chitosan (ChZ) with Na-carboxymethylcellulose (Na-CMC) when mixing their aqueous solutions in a shear flow. Experiments were also carried out in a system of coaxial glass cylinders (the inner cylinder is a rotor) of a specially assembled "Rheoptimmeter", which makes it possible to study the phase transformations of polymers in a shear flow of a mixture using rheological and polarization-optical methods.
