The binding effects of osmolytes on the conformational behavior of grafted polymers are
studied in this work. In particular, we focus on the interactions between urea and poly (N …

We present simulations of aqueous polyelectrolyte complexes with new MARTINI models for
the charged polymers poly (styrene sulfonate) and poly (diallyldimethylammonium). Our …

The preparation and investigation of gel films from a model amphiphilic polymer conetwork
(ACN) grant a deeper control and understanding of the structure–property relationship in the …

By employing large-scale molecular dynamics simulations of atomistically resolved
oligoelectrolytes in aqueous solutions, we study in detail the first four layer-by-layer …

We analyze the internal structure and hydration properties of poly (diallyl dimethyl
ammonium chloride)/poly (styrene sulfonate sodium salt) oligoelectrolyte multilayers at early …

Polyelectrolytes reveal interesting properties in solution. At short length scales, the
dissociation of counterions is heavily affected by the chemical structure of the …

Two oppositely charged water-soluble oligosiloxanes with the same main chain were
synthesized and used for the formation of multilayer nanocoatings. In spite of low molecular …

Solid-supported membranes have become a common tool to study lipid membrane
properties in a controlled environment. One particular example is the study of membrane …

Alginate and chitosan are among the most common biopolyelectrolytes. Surfactants can be
included in alginate and chitosan formulations in order to improve their physical and …

We simulate at the atomistic scale the layer-by-layer growth of a four layers thin film of poly
(diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride)/poly (styrene sulfonate sodium salt) oligomers …
