Determination of the Mark-Houwink equation for chitosans with different degrees of deacetylation.

TL;DR: The values of k and alpha in the Mark-Houwink equation have been determined for chitosans with different degrees of deacetylation (DD) (69, 84, 91 and 100% respectively), in 0.2 M CH3COOH/0.1 MCH3COONa aqueous solution at 30 degrees C by the light scattering method.
