Abstract
The swelling behaviour and elastic properties of gelatin gels are repo rted. Ampholytic swelling properties have been investigated. Antipolye lectrolyte performance is observed when gels are swollen in different salt solutions. Swelling behaviour in high salt solutions is different from that in low salt solutions; this may be attributed to the format ion of ion pairs. The elastic properties of the gel and their relation ship with swelling character are also discussed.
