Abstract
The partition coefficient of guanidine hydrochloride for the PEG4000+ Phosphate +Water system is presented at 298.15 K. The partition coefficient of guanidine hydrochloride was near unity. It was shown that partition coefficient of guanidine
hydrochloride was dependent on the concentration of guanidine hydrochloride, pH and PEG/phase forming salt (%w/w) ratio. In most systems the partitioning coefficient of Guanidine is more than one, which means guanidine preferred polymer-rich phase.
