SEC analysis; molecular weight distribution; role of DA
In this paper, the gel permeation chromatography of chitosan with different degrees of acetylation (0 < DA < 60 mol%) was analyzed using cationic porous supports in acidic conditions. A light scattering detector allowed the determination of the molecular weight distribution and the variation of the radius of gyration as a function of the molecular weight. From these data, the persistence length (L-p) of chitosan as a function of DA is discussed; the role of the method of preparation of the samples is also pointed out. For heterogeneously acetylated chitosan, L-p = 110 Angstrom is found to be independent on DA in the range 0 < DA < 25 mol%. For homogeneously reacetylated samples, L-p increases slightly from 110 to 150 Angstrom when DA increases up to 60%. These conclusions may be related with the acetyl group distribution along the chains as examined by NMR. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
