Аннотация:The competitive interactions in ternary systems consisting of a slightly cross-linked polyelectrolyte hydrogel and the mixture of linear polyelectrolyte and micelle forming surfactant both oppositely charged relative to the polyelectrolyte network were studied. It was shown that the equilibrium in the competitive reactions depends on the linear polyion charge density and the length of the surfactant aliphatic radical. Dependently on these characteristics the interpolyelectrolyte complex formed by cross-linked and linear polyelectrolytes can uptake surfactant ions from water solution transforming into the cross-linked polyelectrolyte-surfactant complex and releasing the linear polyelectrolyte or vice versa. The ternary systems of this kind are perspective to design the novel family of delivery constructs.
