Abstract:A newly developed high‐pressure rheometer for in situ X‐ray scattering experiments is described. A commercial rheometer was modified in such a way that X‐ray scattering experiments can be performed under different pressures and shear. First experiments were carried out on hyaluronan, a ubiquitous biopolymer that is important for different functions in the body such as articular joint lubrication. The data hint at a decreased electrostatic interaction at higher pressure, presumably due to the increase of the dielectric constant of water by 3% and the decrease of the free volume at 300 bar.
Keywords:rheology  pressure  small‐angle X‐ray scattering  complex solutions  hyaluronan
