This lab manual guides chemists through demonstrations of synergistic effects between polyelectrolytes and nanoparticles. It is the first book on the topic giving practical descriptions as well as tips and tricks. After a short introduction into the field of polyelectrolytes and polyelectrolyte characterization, the role of polyelectrolytes in the process of nanoparticle formation is discussed in more detail. However, polyelectrolytes can directly influence the growing of nanoparticles and can also stabilize the nanoparticles formed. Therefore, the nanoparticle formation in polyelectrolyte-modified template phases, e.g. microemulsions, is of growing interest. Finally, methods for characterization of the polyelectrolyte-modified nanoparticles are explained. All the methods and preparation techniques are discussed in sufficient detail to give readers deeper insight into the methodical background.
