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…
