✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Chitosan hollow fibers were produced by wet spinning, taking advantage of the unique rheological properties of highly viscous chitosan solutions in acetic acid. The mechanical and separation properties of hollow fibers were tested. The mechanical properties were determined by measuring tensile force, tensile stress, elongation, and initial elasticity module. The separation properties were specified by determining retention coefficients of particular blood components and determining cut‐off of the membrane by the analysis of dextran molecular weight distribution in the feed and permeate using a technique of gel chromatography (GPC)—Shimadzu gel chromatograph. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
