Abstract
Upon mixing dilute solutions (10⁻⁴ - 10⁻² mol/l) of poly(monobenzyl itaconate) (PMBI) and poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) in methanol, soluble polycomplex particles are formed. Here we report on the spectrophotometric determination of the turbidity of different solutions of PVP and PMBI as a function of polymer concentration and PVP molecular weight. Viscosity measurements were also performed. The polycomplex is weak. Polycomplex particles are more compact and much larger than separated chains of polyacid and polybase. No definite stoichiometry is observed and a microgel-like structure is proposed.
