Amino-terminated poly(acrylamide) of high molecular weight has been el
ectrochemically synthesised, using titanium(III)-hydroxylamine redox s
ystem in aqueous sulphuric acid phase. Polymer is characterised by spe
ctral analysis and molecular weight determination. Influence of variou
s parameters like, concentration of titanium(IV) sulphate, hydroxylami
ne sulphate, sulphuric acid monomer, temperature and cathodic current
on polymer yield has been studied. Suitable mechanism for Ti(III)-NH2O
H initiated electro polymerisation of acrylamide is proposed.
