This article recapitulates the state of the art regarding simulations of ionization equilibria of
weak polyelectrolyte solutions and gels. We start out by reviewing the essential …

Branched polyelectrolytes with cylindrical brush, dendritic, hyperbranched, grafted, and star
architectures bearing ionizable functional groups possess complex and unique assembly …

The thermoresponsive and pH-sensitive behavior of poly (N, N-dimethylaminoethyl
methacrylate)(PDMAEMA), poly (N, N-diethylaminoethyl methacrylate)(PDEAEMA), and poly …

We present a theory of a conformational collapse-to-swelling transition that occurs in
aqueous dispersions of multiresponsive (pH-and thermoresponsive) microgels upon …

To understand and resolve adsorption, reconfiguration, and equilibrium conformations of
charged star copolymers, we carried out an integrated experimental and coarse-grained …

Aqueous solutions of star-like polyelectrolytes (PEs) exhibit distinctive features that originate
from the topological complexity of branched macromolecules. In a salt-free solution of …

Poly (N, N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate)(PDMAEMA) star polyelectrolytes with dual
thermo-and pH-responsive properties have been studied by in situ small-angle neutron …

This work explored solution properties of linear and star poly (methacrylic acids) with four,
six, and eight arms (L PMAA, 4PMAA, PMAA, and 8PMAA, respectively) of matched …

Hydrophobic polyelectrolytes exhibit intra-molecular nano-scale self-organization instead of
macroscopic phase separation because of the interplay between short-range hydrophobic …

We employ fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) to study the translational mobility of
molecular tracers in stimuli-responsive grafted poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)(PNiPAAm) …
