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

The products of the interaction of opposite charged complementary macromolecules, the so called polyelectrolyte complexes (PEC) in polyphosphate sodium-hydrochlorided poly-2-vinylpyridine (PPhNa-P2VPy.HCl) and polyphosphate sodium-polynexamethylenguanidine (PPhNa-PMG) systems, are studied. The composition of PEC was determined by electrochemical methods. At [polyanionl]:[polycationl=l (base-mol) ratio the forming stoichiometric complex precipitates. The investigation in solutions were carried out at [polyanionl: :[polycationl=1.25 ratio. In Figure the dependencies of the reduced viscosity of PPhNa-P2VPy.HCl solutions on pH at different degrees of polymerization of PPhNa (n) are given. The curves resemble those for polyampholytes. Probably PEC can be considered as poly-ampholyte in some cases. For PPhNa-PMG systems the ηSP/C-pH dependencies point to the weakly expressed character of complex formation.
