Polyelectrolytes are a class of polymers possessing ionic groups on their repeating units.
Since counterions can dissociate from the polymer backbone, polyelectrolyte chains are …

We studied the viscosity of semidilute aqueous solutions of sodium polystyrenesulfonate as
a function of polymer and salt concentrations. The viscosity data were quantified by applying …

In the past decade, conjugated oligoelectrolytes (COEs) and conjugated polyelectrolytes
(CPEs) have emerged at the forefront of active materials in bioanalytical and …

Charge-carrying species, such as polyelectrolytes, are vital to natural and synthetic
processes that rely on their dynamic behavior. Through single-particle tracking techniques …

Charge-bearing groups that ionize in solution influence the macromolecular conformations,
interactions, and dynamics of polyelectrolytes. The rich and complex shear rheological …

Conjugated polyelectrolyte (CPE) hydrogels synergize the electrical properties of redox-
active polymers with the physical properties of hydrogels. Of particular relevance is their …

Chain dynamics in the semidilute unentangled regime can be used to determine the
molecular weight of polyelectrolytes based on the Rouse scaling model. Four methods …

We study the conformational, conductometric and rheological properties of semiflexible
polyelectrolyte carboxymethyl cellulose in mixtures of water and three non-solvents (ethanol …

The entanglement dynamics and viscoelasticity of polyelectrolyte solutions remain active
research topics. Previous studies have reported conflicting experimental results when …

Coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations, random phase approximation (RPA)
approach, and scaling analysis are used to study static and dynamic properties of …
