Adhesion of Colloidal Polyelectrolyte Complexes to Wet Cellulose
Abstract
The adhesion of wet regenerated cellulose to colloidal complexes formed between carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and polyvinylamine (PVAm) was evaluated by measuring the force to delaminate pairs of regenerated cellulose membranes bound together with polyelectrolyte complex. The most important parameter was the surface composition of the colloidal complex particles. High delamination forces corresponded to using complexes coated with excess PVAm …
