Effects of temperature, shearing time and rate of shear on the viscosity of chitosan/agar-blend solutions

In this study, a number of aqueous solutions of chitosan/agar blends (with chitosan as the major component) were prepared. The effects of temperature, shear rate and shearing time on the rheological property, i.e. the apparent viscosity, were investigated for the blend solutions. Results show that a...
