Abstract
⺠Borate ions bind to hydroxypropyl guar (HPG) converting a nonionic polymer to an anionic polyelectrolyte. ⺠Bound borate ions do not influence HPG adsorption onto anionic or cationic polystyrene latex. ⺠HPG-borate anionic charge density increases near a cationic surface and decreases upon approach to an anionic surface.
