Preparation and properties of organosoluble polyelectrolyte-surfactant complexes
Abstract
Ethanol soluble complexes of cationic polyelectrolyte-anionic surfactant were obtained. The properties of complexes in solution were studied by viscometry and dynamic laser scattering. Structure, morphology and surface properties of complexes in condensed state were studied by scanning electron microscope, atomic force microscope and XRD. Hydrophobization of hydrophilic surface by deposition of nanosized polyelectrolyte-surfactant complex particles was shown.
