Poly methyl acrylamide

Similar increases in k with ultrasonic intensity have been found for other polymers such as polystyrene [44], poly(methyl methacrylate) [45], poly(dimethylsiloxane) [46], poly(ethyleneoxide), hydroxyethyl cellulose, poly(vinyl acetate), poly(acrylamide)...

Commercially, suspension polymerizations have been limited to the free radical polymerization of water-insoluble liquid monomers to prepare a number of granular polymers, including polystyrene, poly(vinyl acetate), poly(methyl methacrylate), polytetrafluoroethylene, extrusion and injection-molding grades of poly(vinyl chloride), poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) (SAN), and extrusion-grade poly(vinylidene chloride-covinyl chloride). It is possible, however, to perform inverse suspension polymerizations, where water-soluble monomer (e.g., acrylamide) is dispersed in a continuous hydrophobic organic solvent. 

Poly(methyl acetoxy silylene) [poly(MASi)] is also claimed [130] to initiate the polymerization of cyclohexyl methacrylate upon UV irradiation and to crosslink the resulting polymer by air exposure. Finally, the pyridinium salt of partially chloromethylated poly(methyl phenyl silylene) (Q-PMPSi) is reported [131] to initiate the polymerization, in aqueous solution, of hydrophilic vinyl monomers such as methacrylic acid, acrylamide, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and 1 -vinyl-2-pyrrolidone. 

The polymerized acrylamide was completely bound in the graft since no homopolyacrylamide was found. Block polymers have been prepared by linear grafting 11). Eosin lactone was appended to poly (methyl methacrylate) chains by means of a terminal amino group to provide a polymeric initiator which was then used to photoinitiate polymerization of styrene and acrylamide.

Classic examples of synthetic polymers exhibiting an aqueous LCST include poly-diethyl acrylamide), poly(dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate), poly(A -acryloylpyrrolidine), poly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline), elastin-like artificial polypeptides, poly(vinyl methyl ether) and poly(7V-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM, Scheme 1). The latter has been by far the most studied and applied thermoresponsive polymer and therefore can be considered as the gold standard in this field of research. During the last decades, several thousands of research articles and patents described the synthesis, the properties and the applications of this fascinating macromolecule. 

Finally, we note that not all aqueous polymer solutions exhibit the foregoing behaviour. Thus, for example, poly(acrylic acid) and poly(acry-lamide) at low pH display positive values for the enthalpy and entropy of dilution parameters (Silberberg et ai, 1957). Day and Robb (1981) have confirmed calorimetrically that the heat of dilution of poly(acrylamide) in water is endothermic, althou, in contrast, they found that the substituted polyacrylamides poly(N-methyl acrylamide) and poly(N,N-dimethyl acrylamide) displayed negative heats of dilution. It was proposed that the endothermic character of the poly(acrylamide) solutions was a consequence of the energy required to separate the associated amide dipoles.
