From the beginning of life with the information-containing polymers until the present era of a
plethora of water-based materials in health care industry and biotechnology, polyelectrolytes …

The widespread of mixtures formed by polyelectrolytes and oppositely charged surfactants
in different industrial sectors requires a thorough understanding of the physicochemical …

We perform a general thermodynamic analysis for the salt partitioning behavior in the
coexisting phases for symmetric mixtures of polycation and polyanion solutions. We find that …

We address the effects of chain connectivity on electrostaticfluctuations in polyelectrolyte
solutions using a field-theoretic, renormalizedGaussian fluctuation (RGF) theory. As in …

The physical chemistry of liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of polymer solutions bears
directly on the assembly of biologically functional dropletlike bodies from proteins and …

Using a recently developed renormalized Gaussian fluctuation (RGF) field theory that self-
consistently accounts for the concentration-dependent coupling between chain structure and …

We study the phase behavior of polyelectrolyte (PE) solutions with salt using a simple liquid-
state (LS) theory. This LS theory accounts for hard-core excluded volume repulsion by the …

The stretching of a single dipolar chain by a tensile force acting on the chain end is studied
using molecular dynamics simulations and theoretical considerations. In both theory and …

A polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) of oppositely charged linear chains is considered within the
Random Phase Approximation (RPA). We study the salt-free case and use the continuous …

We develop a polymer field-theoretic model that incorporates explicit treatment of
semiflexibility and polar solvents, providing a framework to determine the impact of solvent …
