TECHNICALThe objective of this symposium is to bring together experts in the field of polyelectrolyte complexes and those specializing in the field of polyelectrolyte multilayers . These fields have significant conceptual overlap but are not often considered together. Their similarity is that they both center around noncovalent interactions between charged polymers. The goal of the symposium on these overlapping fields is to generate new ideas and to stimulate new dialogues about polyelectrolyte theory, processing and applications. The multiple sessions of the symposium will cover a broad range of topics which include: Solution behavior of polyelectrolyte complexes, nanoparticles from these complexes, complexation of biological molecules, assembly of polyelectrolyte multilayers , transport and conduction through polyelectrolyte multilayers and complexes, swichable and responsive polyelectrolyte and layer by layer complexes, drug delivery, and new characterization techniques. Sessions will start with an invited speaker and continue with talks selected from submitted abstracts. The request for funding is towards the travel costs of participants. The symposium, "Polyelectrolyte Complexes and Mutilayers", will be held as part of the ACS Division of Colloid and Surface Chemistry program at the 242nd ACS meeting in Denver CO Aug.28th- Sept.1, 2011.NON TECHNICALPolyelectrolytes are polymers which contain groups which dissociate in aqueous solutions making the polymers charged either positively or negatively depending on the groups. Polyelectrolyte complexes are formed by the association of oppositely charged polymers in solution, whereas polyelectrolyte multilayers are formed by the alternating adsorption of oppositely charged polymers from solution onto a substrate. The objective of this symposium is to bring together experts in the field of polyelectrolyte complexes and those specializing in the field of polyelectrolyte multilayers, which share overlapping conceptual underpinnings, but are not often considered together. The multiple sessions of the symposium will cover the fundamentals of these materials and their wide ranging applications which include the fields of energy generation (e.g. fuel cells), bio-inspired materials, and drug delivery. The request for funding is towards the travel costs of participants. The symposium, "Polyelectrolyte Complexes and Mutilayers", will be held as part of the ACS Division of Colloid and Surface Chemistry program at the 242nd ACS meeting in Denver CO Aug.28th- Sept.1, 2011.

研讨会的目的是将复合材料领域的专家聚集在一起 以及那些专门从事多层膜领域的技术人员。这些领域在概念上有很大的重叠，但往往不放在一起考虑。它们的相似之处在于它们都围绕着带电聚合物之间的非共价相互作用。 关于这些重叠领域的研讨会的目标是产生新的想法，并激发关于可再生能源理论，处理和应用的新对话。研讨会的多个会议将涵盖广泛的主题，其中包括：纳米复合物的溶液行为，这些复合物的纳米颗粒，生物分子的络合，纳米多层膜的组装，通过纳米多层膜和复合物的传输和传导，可切换和响应的纳米和逐层复合物，药物输送和新的表征技术。会议将从一位受邀演讲者开始，并从提交的摘要中选择演讲继续。所申请的资金用于支付与会者的旅费。该专题讨论会，“聚电解质复合物和多层”，将举行的一部分，在第242届ACS会议的胶体和表面化学计划在丹佛CO 8月28日至9月1日，2011年ACS部门。非排他性聚电解质是聚合物，其中包含的基团，在水溶液中解离，使聚合物带正电或负电，这取决于基团。聚电解质复合物是通过溶液中带相反电荷的聚合物的缔合形成的，而多层膜是通过溶液中带相反电荷的聚合物交替吸附到基底上形成的。本次研讨会的目的是汇集在复合材料领域的专家和那些专门从事在复合多层领域，共享重叠的概念基础，但往往不被认为是在一起。研讨会的多个会议将涵盖这些材料的基本原理及其广泛的应用，包括能源发电（例如燃料电池），生物启发材料和药物输送领域。所申请的资金用于支付与会者的旅费。该专题讨论会，“聚电解质复合物和多层”，将举行的一部分，在第242届ACS会议在丹佛CO胶体和表面化学计划的ACS部门8月28日至9月1日，2011年。
