Produktbeschreibung

Examines the intersection of polyelectrolyte solutions and chemical physics The Advances in Chemical Physics series is dedicated to reviewing new and emerging topics as well as the latest developments in traditional areas of study in the field of chemical physics. Each volume features detailed comprehensive analyses coupled with individual points of view that integrate the many disciplines of science that are needed for a full understanding of chemical physics. Volume 158 explores the latest research findings, applications, and new research paths in the field of polyelectrolyte solutions. It introduces topics from thermodynamic properties to the ionic binding of polyelectrolytes, and intersects key elements with applications of chemical physics. With contributions from an international team of leading experts, Volume 158 offers six comprehensive reviews including: * Introduction to the strengths and chemistry of polyelectrolyte solutions * Thermodynamic Properties of Polyelectrolyte Solutions * Ionization Equilibrium and Potentiometric Titration of Weak Polyelectrolytes * Molecular Conformation of Linear Polyelectrolytes * Radius of Gyration and Intrinsic Viscosity of Linear Polyelectrolytes * Transport Phenomena of Linear Reviews published in Advances in Chemical Physics are typically longer than those published in journals, providing the space needed for readers to fully grasp the topic: the fundamentals as well as the latest discoveries, applications, and emerging avenues of research. Extensive cross-referencing enables readers to explore the primary research studies underlying each topic.
