Dependence of turbidity oscillations of self-oscillating polymers on the selective recognition of the crown ether receptors contained in the polymer chain

The turbidity oscillations of self-oscillating polymers in the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction system depending on the crown ether receptors contained in the polymer network are analyzed. The turbidity oscillation patterns of the redox changes obtained by these solution systems have looked much alike despite the differences in the polymer chain by crown ether receptors and cations of bromate used for the BZ reaction.
