The viscometric behavior of poly(acrylic acid) solutions, as well as their ion transport properties, were monitored as a function of polymer concentration and the addition of KOH in nonisoionic conditions. Polyelectrolyte effect was studied and characterized by conductivimetry as well as viscometric properties at the infinite dilution limit. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
