The systems show the adsorption of considerable numbers of hydroxyethylcellulose HEC macromolecules on selenium nanoparticles with the formation of a supermolecular close-packed nanostructure for form close to spherical. As the mass fraction of selenium in solution increases up to ν = 0.1, there is a considerable increase in Mw for the nanostructure, with the inertial radius R*g and hydrodynamic radius R*h only slightly and nonmonotonically dependent on the selenium concentration in the aqueous solution. On the other hand, the mean density of the nanostructures Φ* is substantially dependent on the selenium concentration in the solution. The point ν = 0.1 corresponds to a turning point in the dependence of the molecular conformation parameters on the mass selenium: polymer ratio in solution. Probably, ν = 0.1 corresponds to saturation of the adsorption capacity in the amorphous selenium nanoparticles.
