Abstract
Interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) were synthesized by irradiating ac rylonitrile solutions of poly(pyrrolidone) with Co-60-gamma rays. The conve rsion to insoluble IPN structure was characterized using FT-IR and thermal analysis ies of IPN was carried out in aqueous solutions of NH2OH . HCl-NaO H at 50 degrees C. The conversion of amidoximation was followed by using FT -IR spectrophotometer and conversion of nitrile groups to amidoxime was det ermined as percentage. The structure of amidoximated IPN was characterized by FT-IR and thermal methods as well. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science BV. All rig hts reserved.
