Notes:
In this study the preparation of three polyvinylpyridinium fluorides with different hexadecyl group contents is described. Their adsorption on hydroxyapatite (the main constituent of dental enamel) was studied as a function of time and concentration. It was found that increasing hexadecyl group content resulted in lower amounts of adsorbed polymer. The adsorption of the polyelectrolytes is accompanied with the uptake of fluoride by hydroxyapatite at a higher rate and with greater amounts. Phosphate ions present in aqueous suspensions of hydroxyapatite were responsible for this phenomenon. Desorption experiments showed that the adsorption of these macromolecules was irreversible in water. Excess calcium resulted to some extent in desorption.
