In many colloidal systems, both in practice and in model studies, soluble polymers are used to control the particle interactions and the suspension stability. Here we distinguish tliree scenarios interactions between particles bearing a grafted polymer layer, forces due to the presence of non-adsorbing polymers in solution, and finally the interactions due to adsorbing polymer chains. Although these cases are discussed separately here, in practice more than one mechanism may be in operation for a given sample. 

Poly(vinyl alcohol) is a useful water soluble polymer It cannot be prepared directly from vinyl alcohol because of the rapidity with which vinyl alcohol (H2C=CHOH) isomenzes to acetaldehyde Vinyl acetate however does not rearrange and can be polymerized to poly(vinyl acetate) How could you make use of this fact to prepare poly(vinyl alcohol)" ...

The flash point of furfural is 143°F by Tag Closed Cup. Because of its chemical reactivity, furfural should be kept away from strong acids, alkaHes or strong oxidi2ing chemicals. When furfural is stored for long periods in contact with air, there is a gradual darkening of color, increase in acidity, and formation of a soluble polymer. 

Dichromated Resists. The first compositions widely used as photoresists combine a photosensitive dichromate salt (usually ammonium dichromate) with a water-soluble polymer of biologic origin such as gelatin, egg albumin (proteins), or gum arabic (a starch). Later, synthetic polymers such as poly(vinyl alcohol) also were used (11,12). Irradiation with uv light (X in the range of 360—380 nm using, for example, a carbon arc lamp) leads to photoinitiated oxidation of the polymer and reduction of dichromate to Ct(III). The photoinduced chemistry renders exposed areas insoluble in aqueous developing solutions. The photochemical mechanism of dichromate sensitization of PVA (summarized in Fig. 3) has been studied in detail (13). 

Two important classes are cellulose esters (qv) and cellulose ethers (qv). Cellulose esters are not water soluble and are not discussed here cellulose ethers are an important segment of water-soluble polymers. 

With the proper ratio of nutrients and oxygen feed, a water-soluble polymer is produced and accompanied by growth in the microorganism population. Both contribute to the viscosity of the medium and this limits the production process. Fermentation processes require more strenuous mixing and control conditions. 

Cationic monomers are used to enhance adsorption on waste soHds and faciHtate flocculation (31). One of the first used in water treatment processes (10) is obtained by the cyclization of dimethyldiallylammonium chloride in 60—70 wt % aqueous solution (43) (see Water). Another cationic water-soluble polymer, poly(dimethylarnine-fi9-epichlorohydrin) (11), prepared by the step-growth...

Two inorganic water-soluble polymers, both polyelectrolytes in their sodium salt forms, have been known for some time poly(phosphoric acid) (12) and poly(siHcic acid) (13). A more exciting inorganic water-soluble polymer with nonionic...
