Abstrakt: Mechanical activation of solutions of chitosan with low degree of deacetylation under the conditions of combined action of ultrasound and high shear stresses in a rotary pulse apparatus leads to the formation of physical hydrogels. Films capable to retain at repeated swelling up to 5000% water without dissolution were prepared by drying of the hydrogels. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
