Cosolvents Impact on some Properties of the Solutions and the Films of Succinamide Chitosan

The article deals with the method of the medical purpose materials creation with the controlled physico-chemical and mechanical deformation properties on the basis of water-soluble derivative of amino polysaccharide chitosan – succinamide chitosan. The essence of the method is the macromolecules aggregation processes regulation in the initial solutions by the injection of organic cosolvents – acetone and ethanol. It has been stated that in a mixed solvent succinamide chitosan molecules are not in the form of the isolated macromolecular balls but as the macromolecules interacting (aggregated) systems. It has been proved that the presence of cosolvents decreases the polymer macromolecule links capability to interact with an enzyme and increases physico-mechanical characteristics of the film materials.

Modelling of Elastic Modulus and Molecular Structure Interrelationship of an Oriented Crystalline Polymer

A modeling method is suggested on the basis of measurable structural and deformation parameters to estimate the interrelation between the interconnecting chains over amorphous segments conformation structure distribution and the elastic modulus in tension experimental value for a loaded oriented linear amorphous- crystalline polymer. Macromolecule chain pulling out value of polymer crystallite was defined using the Frenkel-Kontorowa’s dislocation model .
