ABSTRACT

Fig. 21 Electrophoretic mobility of poly(acrylic acid-coNIPAAm) microspheres with various sizes. Symbols are experimental data measured as a function of the ionic strength in the suspending medium at pH=7.4 and 45°C: ▲, sample 1; ◊, sample 2; □, sample 3; and ○, sample 4. Solid curves are theoretical ones

calculated via Eq. 30 with zN=−0.059 mol/ dm3 and 1/λ=2.64nm (curve 1), zN=−0.034 mol/dm3 and 1//λ=3.07nm (curve 2), zN=−0.011 mol/dm3 and 1/ λ=3.55 nm (curve 3), and zN=−0.0098 mol/dm3 and 1/ λ=3.55 nm (curve 4).
