Abstract
In chapter 2 we met two types of coacervation, the simple coacervation and the complex coacervation. The latter resembles the salt formation of inorganic chemistry. When we speak of complex-relations, we mean the electrical attraction between oppositely charged groups. Thus a complex-coacervate is a coacervate resulting from the interaction of two oppositely charged components (one at least should be a colloid). Of course, these complex relations may be present in all kinds of colloid systems (one might imagine complex sols, complex gels, complex coacervates, and so on).
