There is actually an article in the Journal of Colloid and Interface Science which discusses this.
Some quotes therefrom:
“the mass ratio of PBA versus PAA”
“to avoid specific interactions of PAA with the column”
“Analyses of PAA have therefore to be taken cautiously.”
(My personal favorite)
“Critical conditions have been determined for PBA”
“PBA is a liquid at room temperature and PAA is a solid.”
“the PBA and PAA layers have a similar thickness”
“a constant PBA/PAA ratio of 0.25”
“upon neutralization of PAA”
“The contribution of PAA to the chemical potential is neglected here.”
“excludes the possibility that PAA swells the cores”
“tension between PBA and water”
