Adsorption of charged particles on an oppositely charged surface: oscillating inversion of charge.
Adsorption of multivalent counterions on the charged surface of a macroion is known to lead to inversion of the macroion charge due to the strong lateral correlations of counterions. We consider a nontrivial role of the excluded volume of counterions on this effect. It is shown analytically that when the bare charge of the macroion increases, its net charge including the adsorbed counterions os...
متن کاملAdsorption of polyelectrolytes at an oppositely charged surface
We develop a scaling theory of polyelectrolyte adsorption at an oppositely charged surface. At low surface charge densities, the thickness of the adsorbed layer is determined by the balance between electrostatic attraction to the charged surface and chain entropy. At high surface charge densities, it is determined by the balance between electrostatic attraction and short-range monomer-monomer r...
متن کاملAdsorption of a weakly charged polymer on an oppositely charged colloidal particle: Monte Carlo simulations investigation
Monte Carlo simulations were used to investigate the conformational and electrical properties of isolated weak polyelectrolytes in the presence of an oppositely charged particle. Titrations curves were calculated to get an insight into the role of pH on the degree of ionization and conformation of isolated chains. The effect of ionic concentration and polyelectrolyte length on the titration cur...
متن کاملColloidal gelation of oppositely charged particles†
Colloidal gelation has been extensively studied for the case of purely attractive systems, but little is understood about how colloidal gelation is affected by the presence of repulsive interactions. Here we demonstrate the gelation of a binary system of oppositely charged colloids, in which repulsive interactions compete with attractive interactions. We observe that gelation is controlled by v...
متن کاملAdsorption of human serum albumin: Dependence on molecular architecture of the oppositely charged surface
We contrast the adsorption of human serum albumin ~HSA! onto two solid substrates previously primed with the same polyelectrolyte of net opposite charge to form one of two alternative structures: randomly adsorbed polymer and the ‘‘brush’’ configuration. These structures were formed either by the adsorption of quaternized poly-4-vinylpyridine ~QPVP! or by end-grafting QPVP chains of the same ch...
