In a previous paper [1], the synthesis of various polystyrene– poly[NIPAM] core–shell latexes bearing cationic amidino and/or amino charges has been described. Several colloidal properties of these cationic latexes have been charac-terized such as: particle size, surface charge density, electrophoretic mobility and finally colloidal stability. Due to the poly[NIPAM]-rich layer in the shell, it was found that temperature played a significant role on all these properties, a LCST around 33 °C being exhibited. In addition, ionic strength was also found to affect the colloidal behavior of these latexes, the largest effect being observed with latexes having both amidino and amino surface charges. The critical coagulation concentra-tions (CCC) of the various latexes above and below the LCST were determined, highlighting the contribution of electrostatic and steric repulsive forces to the stability of these particles.
