The data are presented as averaged values ± standard deviation calculated from 3 repeated experiments both for PLL-g-PEG and CMD as well as for OWLS and QCM-I measurements. The superscripted indications are devoted to set the following remarks: asome referred data were not concretely measured on PLL-g-PEG and CMD polymers (see details below); bmeasured on PEG; cmeasured on PLL-g-D (D as dextran); dmeasured on dextran; emeasured on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC).
MAOWLS: areal mass density measured by OWLS; MAQCM,S3, MAQCM,V: areal mass density measured by QCM-I and evaluated by the Sauerbrey equation as well as by the Voigt-based model, respectively; φA: hydration degree; : number of bound water molecules per one monomer unit of the polymer chain; ρA: density of the hydrated polymer adlayer; nA, dAOWLS: refractive index and optical thickness of the adlayer determined by OWLS; dAQCM,S3, dAQCM,V: adlayer thickness evaluated by the Sauerbrey equation as well as by the Voigt-based model, respectively; ηA, µA: shear viscosity and shear elastic modulus of the polymer adlayer evaluated by the Voigt-based model.
