Abstract: | Mn2+ binding to poly(acrylic acid) at different degrees of ionization, alpha, has been studied from the frequency dependence of the water protons' relaxation rates T1(-1) and T2(-1). Site binding is treated as an equilibrium with the concentration of free ions at the immediate vicinity (CIV) of the polyion. The CIV is calculated as the solution of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation at the surface of the cylindrical polyion. A single value of K is shown to fit the results at all values of alpha. The amount of site binding is higher than the total amount of condensed divalent counterions predicted for a finite polyion concentration in the presence of monovalent counterions by Manning's theory. |
