Mc. Chandy et Vnr. Pillai, WATER SORPTION AND WATER BINDING-PROPERTIES OF CROSS-LINKED POLYACRYLAMIDES - EFFECT OF MACROMOLECULAR STRUCTURE AND CROSS-LINKING, Polymer international, 37(1), 1995, pp. 39-45
The water binding properties of crosslinked copolymers of acrylamide w
ith tetraethyleneglycol diacrylate triethyleneglycol dimethacrylate, N
,N'-methylene bisacrylamide and divinylbenzene were investigated. It w
as observed that the freezing water contents of these copolymers depen
d on the nature of the monomers and crosslinkers, as well as on the ex
tent of crosslinking.
