A cantilever deflection technique was used to monitor stress during the drying of aqueous gelatin coatings. Photographic-grade gelatin was dissolved in deionized water and coated, chilled, and dried. The final average in-plane tensile stress ranged from 0 to 50 MPa. Measured stresses were independen

β¦ Synopsis
The phase-volume-ratio method has been used to study the phase diagrams (at 35 "C) ofthe system gelatinemethyl-cellulose-water at pH's 4.75 and 3.0 and also in the presence of 0.5 M NaC1. Generally, the data obtained provide support for the low compatibility of proteins and neutral polysaccharides in the isoionic protein point and demonstrate the possibility of the improvement of the gelatine-methylcellulose compatibility by shifting pH from the isoionic gelatine point. In addition, it has been shown that NaCl produces a small effect on the gelatine-methylcellulose compatibility. The phase diagrams of the system gelatine-methylcellulosewater are asymmetric, which opens the possibility of gelatine solutions being concentrated by the membranefree osmosis.

## Abstract **Summary:** The existence of liquidβcrystalline (LC) phases in dilute methylcellulose solutions is demonstrated by exothermic peaks in differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curves upon heating and is evidenced by a discontinuity of the dynamic storage modulus when the concentration o
Optical rotation, viscosity, and density studies are reported on solutions of a-gelatin in solvent mixtures of water and various monohydric alcohols. Reversion to the collagen fold by the protein is shown to be first order in all cases, but changes in magnitude as a function of concentration of the
