A molecular dynamics study of the structure and dynamics of screened polyelectrolyte complex materials
Abstract
), which correlates with the number of oppositely charged contacts in the first coordination shell of the monomers. The fragility, represented in Angell plots, was found to be universal for all systems, irrespective of charge density. Compleximers also follow the universal correlation between the structural relaxation time and the rattling amplitude in glass-forming liquids.
