Polyelectrolytes are polymers carrying either positively or negatively charged ionizable
groups. The properties of these polymers in solutions and at charged surfaces depend on …

This review summarizes the current understanding of adsorption of polyelectrolytes to
oppositely charged solid substrates, the resulting interaction forces between such …

The authors review recent advances in the physics of strongly interacting charged systems
functioning in water at room temperature. In these systems, many phenomena go beyond …

Chain-like macromolecules (polymers) show characteristic adsorption properties due to their
flexibility and internal degrees of freedom, when attracted to surfaces and interfaces. In this …

Charged polymers are macromolecules with ionizable groups. These polymeric systems
demonstrate unique properties that are qualitatively different from their neutral counterparts …

The use of polymer and polymer-surfactant mixtures for designing and develo** textile
and personal care cosmetic formulations is associated with various physico-chemical …

This paper reports the in situ study of conformations of flexible synthetic polymer molecules
of protonated poly (2-vinylpyridine) at the solid− liquid interface at different pH of aqueous …

We develop a scaling theory and perform molecular dynamic simulations of weakly
interacting coacervates with electrostatic interaction energy per charge less than thermal …

Atomically thin membranes comprising nanopores in a 2D material promise to surpass the
performance of polymeric membranes in several critical applications, including water …

The effect of solvent conditions on the growth of polyelectrolyte (PE) multilayer films
comprising poly (allylamine hydrochloride)(PAH) and poly (styrenesulfonate sodium …
