Macro-ion Characterization : From Dilute Solutions to Complex Fluids

Developed from a symposium sponsored by the Divisions of Polymer Chemistry, Inc and Colloid and Surface Chemistry at the 205th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society, Denver Colorado, March 28-April 2, 1993, this volume provides a comprehensive, state-of-the-art treatment of charged macromolecules, and presents information on a broad range of topics, from computer simulations of the small ion distribution about a polyion to the complex behaviour of concentrated solutions and gels.

It also examines macro-ion theory, synthesis and characterization, condensation and complexation, solution structure, surface adsorptions, and interfaces and gels.
