INTERACTION OF SODIUM DODECYL-SULFATE WITH POLYELECTROLYTE COMPLEX FROM DIAZORESIN AND POLY(SODIUM STYRENE SULFONATE) IN AQUEOUS-SOLUTION

Polyelectrolyte complex diazoresin-poly(sodium styrene sulfonate) (DR- PSS) from diazoresin (DR) as cationic polyelctrolyte and poly(sodium s tyrene sulfonate) (PSS) as anionic polyelectrolyte does not dissolve i n water or organic solvent because of its electrostatic crosslinking s tructure. It was found that the complex dissolves considerably aqueous solution of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and confirmed that the DR-PS S-SDS system possesses extraordinary thermostability as well as high p hotosensitivity and can be used directly to produce a photoimaging coa ting.
