Abstract
Interpolyelectrolyte complexes formed by linear oppositely charged macromolecules with different affinities for a solvent are studied for the first time using the computer experiment method. It is shown that such complexes self-organize into structures, on the surface of which solvophilic groups are predominantly located. These can be dense spherical particles, hollow vesicle-like particles, and hollow particles with perforated shells. The detailed structure of the obtained morphologies is determined.
