Abstract
Highly water-absorbing polymers of neutralized poly(acrylic acid-co-acrylam ide) were synthesized in an effort to investigate the influences of reactio n parameters on water absorption. In addition, the extent of water absorpti on and the absorption rate were studied to determine their relationship wit h the reaction parameters. This article explains the synthesis technique, c haracterization of the water-absorbing copolymers, and their properties. (C ) 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
