Abstract

The variation of the radius of gyration RG and the hydrodynamic size RH are followed as the ionic strength of the medium is monitored for a flexible polyelectrolyte compound in solutions. In addition, a comparison between the thermodynamical and hydrodynamical interaction parameters is given for the present system.
