It is well-known that the phase behavior and physicochemical and adhesive properties of
complex coacervates are readily tuneable with the salt concentration of the medium. For …

In this paper, coacervates were formed with mixed micelles consisting of the anionic amino
acid surfactant sodium lauroylsarcosinate (NLS) and amphoteric surfactant cocamidopropyl …

Here, we explore the effect of copolymer chemistry on the phase behavior and viscoelasticity
of complex coacervates. To this end, we utilized a library of methacrylate copolymers with …

Strong polyelectrolytes (ie, macromolecules whose charge density is independent of the
medium's pH) are invaluable assets in the soft matter toolbox, as they can readily disperse in …

Biology exploits biomacromolecular phase separation to form condensates, known as
membraneless organelles. Despite significant advancements in deciphering sequence …

Aromatic rings are a common feature of biological and synthetic polymers that form
polyelectrolyte complexes and coacervates. These functional groups can engage in cation-π …
