Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Complexation between biopolymers, chitosan cationic polyelectrolyte and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose anionic polyelectrolyte, was studied. The composition of the interpolymer complex formed was determined by conductometry and Fourier IR spectroscopy. The interpolymer complex and the initial complex-forming polymers were used for the first time as soil-structuring agents in urban soils. Treatment of urban soil with the interpolymer complex led to aggregation of soil particles and improved the water permeability of the soil.
