Effects of ion valency on polyelectrolyte brushes: a unified theory

Ion valency has strong effects on the conformation of polyelectrolyte brushes, which is important for designing the adhesive and lubrication properties of the surface. But a unified theory applicable to both monovalent and multivalent ions is still lacking. Using a consistent description of ion a...
