ABSTRACT
I. INTRODUCTION A. Nonaqueous Solution Polyelectrolyte solutions have been investigated much more extensively in aqueous solutions than in nonaqueous solutions [1-5]. Since many poly electrolytes, usually with high charge density, are difficult to dissolve in polar organic solvents, and since there is a great interest in biological poly electrolytes [6-8] such as proteins, nucleic acids, and polysaccharides in aqueous solutions, the aqueous solution behavior of polyelectrolytes has be come a main subject of study.
