O. Quadrat et al., ELECTRICAL NOISE IN AQUEOUS-SOLUTIONS OF GELATIN CONTAINING KCL DURING THE SOL-GEL TRANSITION, Acta polymerica, 46(1), 1995, pp. 56-59
Electrical current noise and electrical resistivity as well as viscosi
ty were measured in aqueous solutions of gelatin containing KCl during
the sol-gel transition. While the viscosity rises toward infinity at
the transition, the current noise power and the resistivity are contin
uous functions of the time and are therefore potentially useful probes
for characterizing polymers undergoing gelation.
