| Abstract | Colloidal dispersions of polyelectrolyte complexes were prepared in aqueous solutions. We have used mixtures containing the strongly charged anionic polyelectrolyte sodium polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) and the weak cationic polyelectrolyte polyallylamine hydrochloride (PAH). Both polymers have the same molecular weight. The complexes were obtained by adding drop by drop a solution of the anionic polyelectrolyte to excess cationic polyelectrolyte. In these conditions, sodium polystyrene sulfonate and polyallylamine hydrochloride self-assembled in nanometer-range complexes; the self-assembly is driven by electrostatic interactions, as well as by entropy changes due to counterion release. The electrostatic interactions were controlled in several ways: by changing the C PSS/C PAH concentration ratio, by modifying the pH (and thus the protonation degree of polyallylamine hydrochloride), and by adding sodium chloride (screened interactions). Dynamic light scattering experiments demonstrated that the hydrodynamics radius of the polyelectrolyte complex increases, changing from soluble to insoluble complex formation, when some physicochemical parameters are increased: the concentration ratio between polyelectrolytes, the sodium chloride concentration, and pH. Zeta potential measurements, as a function of the C PSS/C PAH concentration ratio, as well as of pH and ionic strength, allow us to state that the resulting particles have a structure constituted by a neutral core surrounded by a positively charged shell. The polyelectrolyte complexes have globular shapes, as observed by electron microscopy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
