Effect of alkali pretreatment on paramylon hydrogel: Structure, rheology, and formation mechanism
Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and ApplicationsParamylon hydrogels were prepared by pretreating β-1,3-glucan in NaOH or KOH (≥0.5 M) to disrupt its triple-helix structure, followed by HCl neutralization. The influence of Na⁺ versus K⁺ on hydrogel properties was examined.
