Phase behavior and charge regulation of weak polyelectrolyte grafted layers

PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS, 98(1).

MeSH headings : Biophysics / instrumentation; Biophysics / methods; Electrolytes / chemistry; Hydrogen-Ion Concentration; Ions; Models, Chemical; Models, Statistical; Polymers / chemistry; Salts / chemistry; Salts / pharmacology; Solvents; Static Electricity; Surface Properties; Temperature; Thermodynamics
TL;DR: The results reveal that increasing salt concentration results in a thermodynamically more stable layer, and it is established that the increased solubility of the layer at low surface coverage is due to the relatively large charge of the grafted polymers. (via Semantic Scholar)
