General description

Poly (Sodium 4-Styrenesulfonate) (PSS), a strong anionic polyelectrolyte, possesses a number of negative charges along its backbone chain. The ionic charges, in such electrolytes, are largely independent of the pH condition. PSS deposition exhibits layer by layer assembly. Alternate adsorption of polycations and polyanions by electrostatic attraction forms polyelectrolyte multilayers (PEMs). PSS-graphite oxide shows high performance of electric double layer capacitance compared to pristine graphite oxide on account of the layer by layer assembly. PSS coating on nanoparticles inhibit formation of agglomeration.

In this article, we report a simple approach for selectively sensing Fe2+ ions using CTAB-stabilized Au-Ag nanorods (CTAB-Au-Ag NRs) in the presence of poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS). The prepared CTAB-Au-Ag NRs exhibit an intense longitudinal surface plasmon resonance absorption (>10(9) M(-1)

We propose a new material for high power and high density supercapacitors with excellent cycle stability. Graphite oxide (PSS-GO) intercalated with poly(sodium 4-styrensulfonate) showed high performance of electric double layer capacitance (EDLC) compared to that of the pristine graphite oxide.

Polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) film can modify the surface properties of materials to improve cellular responses. In this study poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC), poly(sodium 4-styrene sulfonate) (PSS) and poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid) sodium salt (PSS-co-MA) were assembled into PEM {(PDADMAC/PSS)(4)/PDADMAC+PSS-co-MA} film on glass

Poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS)/poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC) multilayers were treated with 1-5 M NaCl solutions, resulting in continuous changes in the physicochemical properties of the multilayers. Significant mass loss was observed when the salt concentration was higher than 2 M and reached
