Polyelectrolyte solution dynamics have been carefully studied experimentally and
theoretically for unentangled solutions and thought to be reasonably well understood. While
theoretical models have been proposed for entangled polyelectrolyte solutions, there have
been limited experimental data published to justify any understanding of entangled
polyelectrolyte solution rheology. Herein, we study entangled nearly monodisperse carefully
