β¦ Synopsis
We report on the formation of the polycation/dye/polyanion (PC/D/PA) complexes by the interaction between nonstoichiometric polycation/dye (PC/D) complexes with polyanions. Polycations differed in their content of the (N,N-dimethyl-2hydroxypropylene ammonium chloride) units in the main chain. Poly(sodium acrylate) (NaPA), poly(sodium 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonate) (NaPAMPS) and poly-(sodium styrenesulfonate) (NaPSS) were used as polyanions. Crystal Ponceau 6R (CP6R) and Ponceau 4R (P4R) with two or three sulfonic groups were used as anionic dyes. The interaction between nonstoichiometric PC/D complexes and polyanions was followed by UV-VIS spectroscopy, viscometry, and conductometry measurements. Formation of PC/D/PA complexes takes place mainly by the electrostatic interaction between the polyanion and the free positive charges of the nonstoichiometric PC/D complex. The stoichiometry and the stability of the tricomponent complexes depended on the polycation structure, the structure and molecular weight of polyanion, the dye structure, and the P/D molar ratio. A high amount of the dye was excluded from the complex before the end point when a branched polycation was used. The higher the solubility of the dye the lower the stability of the PC/D/PA complexes.
