Dispersion polymerization of acrylamide and acrylic acid was successfully carried out in aqueous salt solutions using anionic polyelectrolytes as stabilizers. The influences of aqueous solution of salt concentration, molecular weight and concentration of the stabilizers on the apparent viscosity and stability of the dispersions, and on the molecular weight of the polymers prepared were investigated. The results showed that stable dispersions could be obtained on condition that salt concentration was between 26%~30%, concentration of stabilizers between 8%~12%, and intrinsic viscosity of stabilizers between 2.977~3.740 dL/g. With salt concentration ranging from 26% to 30%, molecular weight of products increased first and then decreased. Molecular weight of products was hardly changed when concentration of stabilizer was between 8%~12%. When intrinsic viscosity of stabilizer was between 2.977~3.740 dL/g, increase of the molecular weight of stabilizer resulted in a decrease in the molecular weight of the products.

Fluorescence spectroscopy and anisotropy measurements have been used to study a series of styrene – acrylic acid, STY–AA, and methyl methacrylate – acrylic acid, MMA–AA, copolymers in dilute methanolic and aqueous solutions. Copolymerization of either STY or MMA with AA has little effect upon the rate of intramolecular segmental motion in methanol solutions. In aqueous media, intramolecular hydrophobic aggregation occurs and restricts the macromolecular dynamics to an extent dependent upon pH, nature of the comonomer, and copolymer composition. The hydrophobic domains formed in these copolymer systems can solubilize organic guests. In this respect, STY is a more powerful modifier of AA-based polymer behaviours than is MMA. In general, the hydrophobic modification increases the solubilization power of the resultant polymer. Furthermore, the copolymers retain their solubilization capacities to higher values of pH the more hydrophobic the comonomer and the greater its content in the copolymer. The interiors of the hydrophobic aggregates reduce the mobilities of occluded guests: the microviscosities of the domain interiors depend upon the nature of the hydrophobe, pH, and copolymer composition. Keywords: fluorescence, anisotropy, water-soluble polymers, acrylic acid, hydrophobic modification.

AbstractPoly (acrylamide-acrylic acid-dimethylaminoethylmethacrylate), p(AM-AA-DMAEM) and Poly(acrylamide-acrylic acid)-ethylenediaminetetracetic acid disodium, p(AM-AA)-EDTANa2 were prepared by gamma radiation-induced template polymerization technique and used for the separation of Ga (III) from Cu (II), Ni (II), and Zn (II) in aqueous media. The effect of pH and contact time on the separation process was studied. The optimum pH value for the separation process is 3–3.5. The result shows that Ga (III) is first extracted while Cu (II), Ni (II) and Zn(II) are slightly extracted at this pH value. The recovery of metals using HCl, HNO3 and H2SO4 has been studied. The resins may be regenerated using 2M HCl solutions.
