Abstract
Acrylamide coordinated to Cr(III), Bi(III), Pb(II), and Ca(II) nitrate s polymerizes spontaneously in concentrated aqueous solutions at appro ximately 20-degrees-C with formation of glass-like polymers containing water. The process takes from several hours to several days, dependin g on reaction conditions and the nature of the metal nitrate. The prod uct contains water-soluble and water-insoluble fractions. The insolubl e fraction is polyacrylamide containing no metal compound. The possibi lity of spontaneous copolymerization of acrylamide complexes of metal nitrates with other water-soluble monomers was established.
