Polyelectrolyte Solutions with Multivalent Salts
Paulo S. Kuhn, Yan Levin, Marcia C. Barbosa
We investigate the thermodynamic properties of a polyelectrolyte solution in a presence of {\it multivalent} salts. The polyions are modeled as rigid cylinders with the charge dist…
Complex Formation Between Polyelectrolytes and Ionic Surfactants
Paulo S. Kuhn, Yan Levin, Marcia C. Barbosa
The interaction between polyelectrolyte and ionic surfactant is of great importance in different areas of chemistry and biology. In this paper we present a theory of polyelectrolyt…
Rod-like Polyelectrolytes in Presence of Monovalent Salt
Paulo S. Kuhn, Yan Levin, Marcia C. Barbosa
We investigate the properties of rigid polyelectrolyte solutions in presence of monovalent salt. The free energy within the Debye-Hückel-Bjerrum (DHBj) theory [M. E. Fisher and Y.…
