Polyelectrolyte adsorption onto oppositely charged interfaces: unified approach for plane, cylinder, and sphere.
A universal description is presented for weak adsorption of flexible polyelectrolyte chains onto oppositely charged planar and curved surfaces. It is based on the WKB (Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin) quantum mechanical method for the Green function equation in the ground state dominance limit. The approach provides a unified picture for the scaling behavior of the critical characteristics of polyele...
متن کاملAggregate Size Dependence of Amyloid Adsorption onto Charged Interfaces
Amyloid aggregates are associated with a range of human neurodegenerative disorders, and it has been shown that neurotoxicity is dependent on aggregate size. Combining molecular simulation with analytical theory, a predictive model is proposed for the adsorption of amyloid aggregates onto oppositely charged surfaces, where the interaction is governed by an interplay between electrostatic attrac...
متن کاملPolyelectrolyte Adsorption on Charged Substrate
The behavior of a polyelectrolyte adsorbed on a charged substrate of high-dielectric constant is studied by both Monte-Carlo simulation and analytical methods. It is found that in a low enough ionic strength medium, the adsorption transition is first-order where the substrate surface charge still keeps repulsive. The monomer density at the adsorbed surface is identified as the order parameter. ...
متن کاملComplex Formation between Polyelectrolyte and Oppositely Charged Mixed Micelles
Electrophoretic light scattering, dynamic light scattering, turbidity, and static light scattering were used to study complex formation between poly(dimethyldiallylammonium chloride) (PDMDAAC) and oppositely charged mixed micelles of Triton X-100 (TX100) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in 0.4 M NaC1. Interpolymer complexes form with an increasing bulk weight ratio of PDMDAAC to TX100-SDS, W, a...
متن کاملComplexation of semiflexible chains with oppositely charged cylinder.
We study the complexation of long thin semiflexible polymer chains with an oppositely charged cylinder. Starting from the linear Poisson-Boltzmann equation, we calculate the electrostatic potential and the energy of such a charge distribution. We find that sufficiently flexible chains prefer to wrap around the cylinder in a helical manner, when their charge density is smaller than that of the c...
