Polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) are self-assembled materials formed by the electrostatic interaction of oppositely charged polymers. Their ability to undergo phase separation through coacervation has ...

Understanding the fundamentals of designing polyelectrolyte coatings, which can be seen as a bio-inspired approach due to chemical sequences that are analogous to proteins at a molecular level, ...

For years, we’ve known that a special kind of molecular assembly known as a “polyelectrolyte complex” helps your cells keep themselves organized. These complexes are very good at forming interfaces to ...
