Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract The complexation of poly(4‐vinylpyridine) (1), poly(2‐methyl‐5‐vinylpyridine) (2) and poly(2‐vinylpyridine) (3) with bromides, perchlorates and tetraphenylborates of alkali metals in organic solvents was investigated by means of electroconductivity, viscometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The influence of the nature of the polymer, the low‐molecular‐weight salt and the solvent, salt and polymer concentration as well as the temperature on complexation was studied. The fraction of cations and that of polymer units bound were determined. The compositions of the complexes were found by means of viscometry. It was established that the mechanism of binding of the polymers with alkali metal salts is of the ion‐dipole type.
