Charging of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) in the presence of different alkali metal counterions was studied by precision potentiometric titration. The charging behavior can be described with a novel cylinder Stern model quantitatively. This model is based on the Poisson–Boltzmann equation in the cylinder geometry and a constant Stern capacitance. One finds an increasing cylinder radius with increasing mass of the alkali metal ion and a correspondingly decreasing Stern capacitance. The intrinsic ionization constants for the uncharged polymer are found to decrease with ionic strength, similarly to weak acids of low molecular mass.
