Abstract

Measurements of viscosity were carried out using several solutions of cellulose in different concentrations of phosphoric acid at different temperatures. The intrinsic viscosity [η]0, a measure for the size of a single chain and the Huggins constant kH, a measure for the interaction between chains were derived.
