The Effect of Salt on the Complex Coacervation of Vinyl Polyelectrolytes

The Effect of Salt on the Complex Coacervation of Vinyl Polyelectrolytes

Complex coacervation is an electrostatically-driven phase separation phenomenon that is utilized in a wide range of everyday applications and is of great interest for the creation of self-assembled materials. Here, we utilized turbidity to characterize the effect of salt type on coacervate formation...
