## Abstract A novel method of thermoβcontrolled emulsion polymerization has been employed to synthesize spherical polyelectrolyte brushes that consist of a solid polystyrene core and a poly (acrylic acid) (PAA) shell covalently attached on the core surface densely by one end. The growth of brushes
## Abstract **Summary:** We use Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FTβIR) spectroscopy to study the thermal unfolding and refolding behavior of ribonuclease (RNase A) adsorbed to spherical polyelectrolyte brushes (SPB). The SPB consist of a solid poly(styrene) core of ca. 100 nm diameter onto
## Abstract We present a comprehensive investigation on the formation of gold nanoparticles in spherical polyelectrolyte brushes. These colloidal carrier particles consist of a solid polystyrene core onto which long cationic polyelectrolyte chains are grafted. Immersed in water these polyelectrolyt
## Abstract **Summary:** If long polyelectrolyte chains are attached densely to colloidal latex particles, a spherical polyelectrolyte brush results. These spherical polyelectrolytes are dispersed in water and carry a high charge. We demonstrate that these systems can be used to immobilize ions of
