Effect of Cosolvents on the Phase Separation of Polyelectrolyte Complexes

September 13, 2024
Author(s)
Yuanchi Ma, Robert Ivancic, Jan Obrzut, Debra Audus, Vivek Prabhu
Evidence is shown that cosolvent mixtures control the coacervation of mixtures of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes. Binary and ternary solvent mixtures lead to non-monotonic solubility as a function of measured average dielectric constants of the

Monitoring Protein Complexation with Polyphosphazene Polyelectrolyte Using Automated Dynamic Light Scattering Titration and Asymmetric Flow Field Flow Fractionation and Protein Recognition Immunoassay

April 21, 2023
Author(s)
Michael Lueckheide, Alexander Marin, Harichandra Tagad, Nicholas Posey, Vivek Prabhu, Alexander Andrianov
Polyphosphazenes represent a class of intrinsically flexible polyelectrolytes with potent immunoadjuvant activity, which is enabled through non-covalent self-assembly with antigenic proteins by charge complexation. The formation of supramolecular complexes

Chapter: Structure and phase behavior of polyampholytes and polyzwitterions

March 4, 2022
Author(s)
Phillip Pickett, Yuanchi Ma, Vivek Prabhu, Michael Lueckheide, Nicholas Posey
Polyelectrolytes contain many units of charged moieties, often as either anionic or cationic. However, when a polymer comprises both anionic and cationic monomers, the result is a polyampholyte. Polyzwitterions are a type of polyampholyte that contain

Additive-Containing Rinses for LER and Defectivity Control During High-Resolution Resist Patterning

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
D L. Goldfarb, S D. Burns, M Angelopolous, S Skordas, R L. Burns, M C. Lawson, C J. Brodsky, V Vishnu, E Jablonski, Vivek Prabhu, Ronald L. Jones, B D. Vogt, Christopher Soles, Eric K. Lin, Wen-Li Wu
The addition of a surface conditioning agent to the de-ionized water rinse used to quench the photoresist development process is an attractive methodology that can afford a controlled decrease in resist line edge roughness (LER) or a reduction in

Molecular Mass Dependence of Interfacial Tension in Complex Coacervation

June 11, 2021
Author(s)
Debra Audus, Samim Ali, Artem Rumyantsev, Yuanchi Ma, Juan J. de Pablo, Vivek Prabhu
The interfacial tension of coacervates, the liquidlike phase composed of oppositely charged polymers that coexists at equilibrium with a supernatant, forms the basis for multiple technologies. Here we present a comprehensive set of experiments and
