Robust adhesion to wet, salt-encrusted, corroded and slimy surfaces has been an essential adaptation in the life histories of sessile marine organisms for hundreds of millions of years …
Polyelectrolyte complexes are omnipresent both in nature and in the technological world, including nucleotide condensates, biological marine adhesives, food stabilizers …
Complex coacervation driven liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of biopolymers has been attracting attention as a novel phase in living cells. Studies of LLPS in this context are …
Stoichiometric polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) of the strong polyelectrolytes poly (styrenesulfonate)(PSS) and poly (diallyldimethylammonium)(PDADMA) were dissociated …
Polyelectrolyte complexes, PECs, are spontaneously formed blends of polyelectrolytes bearing positive, Pol+, and negative, Pol–, repeat units. Many interesting PEC morphologies …
There has been increasing interest in complex coacervates for deriving and transporting biomaterials. Complex coacervates are a dense, polyelectrolyte‐rich liquid that results from …
