Scaling Theory of Polyelectrolyte Adsorption on Repulsive Charged Surface

Soft Condensed Matter 2016-08-31 v3 Chemical Physics

Abstract

We studied polyelectrolyte adsorption on a repulsive charged surface by scaling analysis. At low ionic strength and low surface charge density in which a single polyelectrolyte is able to be adsorbed onto the surface, different regimes in the phase diagram are identified. The possibility of multi-layer structure formed by polyelectrolytes of like charge is also investigated.
