Effect of Charge Density on the Cooperative Binding Isotherm of Surfactant Ion to Polyelectrolyte

Abstract
The binding isotherm of dodecyltrimethylammonium ion to partially hydrolyzed poly(potassium vinyl sulfate) was determined potentiometrically as a function of the average separation (d) between neighboring ionic groups. The cooperativity in binding process was found to decrease rapidly to about d≈0.44 nm and eventually disappear at d≈3.7 nm.
