“…The phase with high polymer concentration is called a coacervate and is frequently used in the food and consumer product industries. Research interest in such materials is, in part, driven by emerging technological applications such as protein encapsulation for drug delivery, − model protocells for the study of synthetic cell-like entities, , and the design of functional coatings, , fibers, and self-healing materials. , Coacervates are also observed in a variety of biological systems, e.g., sandcastle worms secrete oppositely charged polyelectrolytes to create underwater bioadhesives, and coacervation of intrinsically disordered proteins is important for cellular function. , Such applications have motivated numerous studies ,− of their thermodynamic properties. However, despite their importance for the design and processing of coacervates, the dynamic and flow properties of coacervates and their connection to microscopic structure remain poorly understood …”
