Emulsion stabilization using polyelectrolytes: Polyelectrolytes are charged polymers capable of stabilizing (or destabilizing) colloidal emulsions through electrostatic interactions. Their effectiveness can be dependent on molecular weight, pH, solvent polarity, ionic strength, and the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB). (Chemistry) [100%] 2023-10-30 [Chemical processes]
Polyelectrolyte: Polyelectrolytes are polymers whose repeating units bear an electrolyte group. Polycations and polyanions are polyelectrolytes. (Chemistry) [100%] 2024-11-13 [Polyelectrolytes] [Colloidal chemistry]...
Polyelectrolyte adsorption: Adsorption of polyelectrolytes on solid substrates is a surface phenomenon where long-chained polymer molecules with charged groups (dubbed polyelectrolytes) bind to a surface that is charged in the opposite polarity. On the molecular level, the polymers do not actually ... (Physics) [70%] 2023-09-16 [Materials science]

Polyelectrolyte theory of the gene: The polyelectrolyte theory of the gene proposes that for a linear genetic biopolymer dissolved in water, such as DNA, to undergo Darwinian evolution anywhere in the universe, it must be a polyelectrolyte, a polymer containing repeating ionic charges. These charges ... [44%] 2023-12-27 [Wikipedia Student Program] [Origin of life]...
