RS232 = Recommended Specification 232 which deals with handshaking and protocols for transferring serial data using a V24 interface.
MAX232 = An IC made by Maxim with sections to convert TTL voltage levels to V24 voltage levels and sections to convert V24 to TTL, basically a voltage level shifter.

As you can see, the two are completely different things, what is it you want to know?

Brian.
