Abstract

During the past few years, increasing number of papers on physico-chemical properties of poly(betaine)s based on poly(N-vinylimidazole) (PVI) have been reported. It was found that the poly(betaine)s exhibit in water different behaviors: polyelectrolyte, non-polyelectrolyte, or anti-polyelectrolyte. Given their interesting properties, the poly(betaine)s have many applications in medical and industrial areas..
