Abstract
Mixed micelles associate with polyelectrolytes of opposite charge to form soluble or insoluble complexes. The interaction takes place abruptly-signaled by a sudden enhancement in scattering-upon an increase of micelle surface charge density, an increase in polymer linear charge density, or a decrease in ionic strength, and involves a microscopic or macroscopic phase change. Because the surface charge state and the dimensions of the mixed micelles may be varied over a wide range, the polyion-micelle system provides a useful model for polyelectrolyte-colloid interactions
