Abstract
Structure formation in solutions of polysaccharides proceeds through m ultistage associations of macromolecules that lead in many cases to mi cro heterogeneous structure of semi-dilute liquid solutions as well as thermotropic gels. Along with hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interact ions, intermacromolecular coordination bonds of metal ions can be of c rucial importance in the formation of gel networks.
