Abstract
The coacervate phase is formed by a high water content (typically 65-85%), some simple ions, as well as polyelectrolytes, which mimic the intracellular environment very well. Coacervates can be confined to a nanometer domain if one of the components of the coacervate consists of a diblock copolymer containing one of the blocks electrically charged. In this case, the result is a core-shell…
