Evaluation of Gelling Properties of Qinyu Burns Gel by Dynamic Rheology

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate rheological property of Qinyu burns gel by using dynamic rheology,and to evaluate gelling properties. METHODS:Rheological parameters were determined by shear rate and frequency scanning;viscoelasticity was determined by creep experiment. The stability of the gel was evaluated by stimulant modes of storage,transportation and application.RESULTS:Qinyu burns gel was shear-thinning pseudoplastic fluid. Its elasticity,viscidity and stability were satisfactory. CONCLUSIONS:The dynamic rheological experiments can characterize the gelling properties of Qinyu burns gel and provide basis for evaluation in vitro and quality control of products.
