Polyelectrolyte

A polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) matrix formed between chitosan and pectin was developed to entrap a bioactive compound (anthocyanin), obtaining an useful pH indicator device. Polysaccharides of opposite charges such as chitosan and pectin can have a very strong intermolecular interaction.

In the present study, supramolecular polyelectrolyte complexes (SPEC) based on a cyclodextrin-grafted chitosan derivative and carrageenan were prepared and evaluated for controlled drug release. Samples were characterized by FTIR, SEM, and ζ-potential measurements, which confirmed the formation of the polymeric complex.

The aim of research was to develop biopolymer films based on natural polysaccharides. For the first time, biodegradable films were obtained on the basis of a furcellaran-chitosan polyelectrolyte complex. The conditions for its formation were determined by measuring the zeta potential as a function of colloid pH, the size of pure components and their mixtures.

Monoaldehydes, due to natural origin and therapeutic activity, have attracted great attention for their ability to crosslink chitosan hydrogels for biomedical applications. However, most studies have focused on singlecomponent hydrogels. In this work, chitosan-based hydrogels, crosslinked for the first time with 2,3,4-trihydroxybenzaldehyde (THBA), were modified with pectin (PC), bioactive glass (BG), and rosmarinic acid (RA).

Dextran esters of different amino acids (glycine, β-alanine, L-ornithine, L-lysine) are investigated regarding their pKa values by potentiometric titration. The pKa values of the dextran derivatives are generally dependent on the position of the amino group in relation to the ester group, i.e. the nearer they are located in the molecule, the lower the resulting pKa values are, L-ornithine ester being the exception. An influence of the polymer backbone is ruled out.

This work reports the synthesis and properties of a new membrane based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) grafting with polyacrylic acid (PAA) using argon (Ar) plasma. The membranes of PVC were synthesized by solutioncasting method, where PAA was deposited as an ultrathin film onto PVC using dielectric barrier discharge at atmospheric pressure with Ar gas. The surface characteristics and chemical composition of the modified membranes were analyzed by water contact angle, scanning electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.

Polymers bearing quaternized 4-vinylpyridine (QVP) groups are known for their antibacterial activities and these polymers can form polyelectrolyte complexes (PEC) with polyanions through electrostatic interactions. PEC formation can be used to adjust the antibacterial activity of polymers of QVP, deliver active molecules, or design antibacterial supramolecular structures. However, the antibacterial activity of PECs of QVP polymers has not been investigated. In this study, a copolymer of QVP was mixed with polyacrylic acid in various molar ratios of components to form PECs.

Poly(3-thiophene acetic acid) (P3TAA) was synthesized using chemical procedures. The structure, surface and morphology of these water-soluble polythiophenes were determined by introducing pH-responsive carboxylic acid groups at the 3-position of thiophene ring and doing FT-IR spectra, SEM and TGA analyses.

The present work deals with the leachate treatment using the following processes: coagulation-flocculation by alumina sulfate followed by anionic polyelectrolyte, on one hand. This treatment is preceded by a pretreatment using NaOH and KOH. On the other hand, adsorption by bark Alep pine powder and fibers of date palm leaves is used.

The phenomena of charge inversion and effective attraction between the like - charged spherical macromolecules in electrolyte solvent has been studied by using Poisson - Boltzmann mean-field theory, alongside the assumption that counterions condense on the surface of macromolecules to form a strongly correlation liquid.

It is shown that the condensation of the polyelectrolyte around the macroion shows a first order phase transition from a dense to a dilute concentration of monomers. The width of the condensed region increases with stronger screening or with smaller macro-ion charges. For small macro-ion charge, or when the Coulomb interactions are strongly screened, no complexation between the polyelectrolyte and the macro-ion happens. Additionally, long polyelectrolyte protrudes both tails and loops from the macroion. This is quite different from the case of large macroions where only tails appear.

Soft matter (or soft condensed matter) refers to a group of systems that includes polymers, colloids, amphiphiles, membranes, micelles, emulsions, dendrimers, liquid crystals, polyelectrolytes, and their mixtures. Soft matter systems usually have structural length scales in the region from a nanometer to several hundred nanometers and thus fall within the domain of “nanotechnology.” The soft matter length scales are often characterized by interactions that are of the order of thermal energies so that relatively small perturbations can cause dramatic structural changes in them.

The removal of suspended matter from water is one of the major goals of water treatment. Only disinfection is used more often or considered more important. In fact, effective clarification is really necessary for completely reliable disinfection because microorganisms are shielded by particles in the water. Clarification usually involves: • coagulation • flocculation • settling • filtration This guide focuses on coagulation and flocculation: the two key steps which often determine finished water quality....
