Abstract
Pure powdery high molecular weight polyacrylonitrile (HMW-PAN) copolymers were firstly synthesized by aqueous deposited polymerization (ADP) technique employing 2,2'-Azobis (isobutyramidine) dihydrochloride (AIBA) as initiator and itaconic acid (IA) as comonomer. Various PAN polymers were obtained through changing different polymerization parameters. It is indicated that with the increase of total monomer concentration, initiator concentration, reaction temperature and reaction time, polymerization conversions of PAN copolymers all increased. While the molecular weights become greater with the increase of total monomer concentration. With the increase of initiator concentration and reaction temperature (under higher reaction temperature region), the molecular weights decreased. However, the molecular weights only had very little decrease at the end of long extension of reaction time.
