Abstract: | The mechanism of coacervation is reexamined in the light of recent studies on the polar (i.e., hydrogen-bonding) components of interfacial Interactions in aqueous media. The differences and similarities between coacervation, complex coacervation and flocculation are outlined and illustrated with a number of examples. |
