Polyelectrolytes and especially polyelectrolyte amphiphilic copolymers are stimuli multi-responsive and usually water-soluble. So, they meet today requirements for cheap, environmentally friend, and non-toxic materials for smart applications in medicine, technological …
In polyelectrolyte systems, the long-range Coulomb interactions dominate the behavior at large scales. Their competition with the short-range interactions between hydrophobic chain units and water molecules results in unique properties …
The confinement effects complicate significantly the polymer behavior, however they simultaneously provide opportunities to generate novel nanostructures useful for advanced applications such as nanocontainers or molecular templates. Detailed knowledge of …
