Polycationic
Polycationic refers to molecules or substances that possess multiple positive charges. These positive charges are typically located on functional groups that have donated a proton or are permanently ionized. The positive charges can arise from various sources, such as amine groups, quaternary ammonium groups, or guanidinium groups. The overall charge density and distribution of these positive charges are key characteristics of a polycationic substance.
Polycationic compounds play significant roles in various scientific and industrial applications. In biology, they are important
In materials science and chemistry, polycationic polymers are utilized in diverse ways. They can act as flocculants
