The polyelectrolytic properties of the marine humic acid solutions of various degree of neutralization have been studied. The viscosity and the potentiometric titration curve change with time; it takes more than one month to attain the equilibrium for the marine humic acid solution, while commercially available Aldrich humic acid solution becomes the constant state after about 2 d from its preparation. The results indicate that the marine humic acid slowly changes its conformation in the solution like polysoaps.Potentiometric titration curves of the humic acids do not exhibit well-defined equivalence points. The alkaline amount to neutralize the marine humic acid is determined to be 2.9meq/g and for Aldrich's 5.3meq/g.The viscometric behavior of the marine humic acid is similar to a typical flexible polyelectrolyte having charges; in the solution without salt the viscosity rises in the low concentration range and the addition of salt causes the viscosity decrease. The viscosity value of Aldrich's is low because of its small molecular weight. According to the Staudinger's equation, the molecular weight of the marine humic acid is estimated to be 20 times as high as that of Aldrich's.The reduced viscosity vs. concentration plots show discontenuous points which indicate the aggregate formation. The concentration at which aggregation occurs is determined to be 0.1%. It is also estimated by the use of the Fuoss' equation. These results are in good accord with that of the previous work on surface tension measurements.
