چکیده
The objective of the present study is to systematically elucidate the time-dependent rheological behavior of concentrated xanthan gum solutions in a wide variety of shear flow conditions. In order to analyze the time-dependent behavior, start-up, interrupted shear flow, step shear flow and cyclic shear flow experiments have been conducted in this work.

Rheology of concentrated xanthan gum solutions: Oscillatory shear flow behavior
Using a strain-controlled rheometer, the dynamic viscoelastic properties of aqueous xanthan gum solutions with different concentrations were measured over a wide range of strain amplitudes and then the linear viscoelastic behavior in small amplitude oscillatory shear flow fields was investigated over a broad range of angular frequencies. In this article, both the strain amplitude and concentrat...
متن کاملRheology of Hydrophobically Associating Polymers for Oilfield Applications
Water-soluble hydrophobically associating polymers are examined with particular emphasis on their rheology for oilfield applications. The incorporation of a small amount (less than 1 mol%) of hydrophobic groups into the polymer backbone of a water-soluble polymer dramatically alters the rheological properties of the resulting material. Associating polymers have potential for use in mobility con...
متن کاملEffects of protein concentration and oil-phase volume fraction on the stability and rheology of menhaden oil-in-water emulsions stabilized by whey protein isolate with xanthan gum
The influences of protein concentration (0.2, 1, 2wt%) and oil-phase volume fraction (5%, 20%, 40% v/v) on emulsion stability and rheological properties were investigated in whey protein isolate (WPI)-stabilized oil-in-water emulsions containing 0.2wt% xanthan gum (XG). The data of droplet size, surface charge, creaming index, oxidative stability, and emulsion rheology were obtained. The result...
متن کاملLow Flux Rheology of HPAM and Xanthan in Porous Media Summary
This report clarifies the rheology of xanthan and partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM) solutions in porous media, especially at low velocities. Previous literature reported resistance factors (effective viscosities in porous media) and an apparent shear thinning at low fluxes that were noticeably greater than what is expected on the basis of viscosity measurements. The polymer component t...
متن کاملFreeze-dried Xanthan/Guar Gum Nasal Inserts for the Delivery of Metoclopramide Hydrochloride
Prolonged residence of drug formulation in the nasal cavity is important for the enhancing intranasal drug delivery. The objective of the present study was to develop a mucoadhesive in-situ gelling nasal insert which would enable the reduced nasal mucociliary clearance in order to improve the bioavailability of metoclopramide hydrochloride. Metoclopramide hydrochloride is a potent antiemetic...
