Adsorption of polyelectrolytes in the presence of varying dielectric discontinuity between solution and substrate
Hossein Vahid, Alberto Scacchi, Maria Sammalkorpi +1
We examine the interactions between polyelectrolytes (PEs) and uncharged substrates at conditions corresponding to a dielectric discontinuity between the aqueous solution and the s…

Non-monotonic electrophoretic mobility of rod-like polyelectrolytes by multivalent coions in added salt
Hossein Vahid, Alberto Scacchi, Maria Sammalkorpi +1
It is well established that when multivalent counterions or salts are added to a solution of highly-charged polyelectrolytes (PEs), correlation effects can cause charge inversion o…
