The complexation of Cu2+ and Mg2+ with isotactic and syndiotactic poly(methacrylic acid) was studied by dialysis equilibrium over a range of degrees of ionization of the polymeric acid. It was found that the isotactic polymer has the higher affinity for Cu2+, while Mg2+ is bound more strongly to the syndiotactic species.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
