Abstract

Mixed solutions of chitosan and polymers with different chain rigidities (polyvinyl alcohol and methyl cellulose) in 2% acetic acid, at various component ratios, were studied viscometrically. The compatibility of the components in solutions and in the solid phase was assessed, and the mechanical characteristics of films prepared from these blends were determined.
