Abstract
Photon correlation spectroscopy has been used as a method to determine the
size of the particles of a polymer colloid. This experimental study provide
s information about the morphology of the external polymer chains formed du
ring the particles synthesis process. The results can be explained on basis
on the "hairy layer" model. According to this model the polymer chains ext
end to the solution in a length depending upon the pH of the liquid phase.
