Abstract
AbstractPrecipitation polymerization of 2‐(methacryloyloxyethyl) trimethyl ammonium chloride (DMC)‐co‐acrylamide (AM) [poly(AM‐DMC)] has been successfully performed in potassium carbonate (K2CO3)‐water media by plasma initiation. K2CO3 solution was selected because not only the higher solubility of AM and DMC comparing with that of poly(AM‐DMC), but the higher intrinsic viscosity of poly(AM‐DMC) could be obtained. A set of experiments was performed using different K2CO3 concentration (from 50 down to 10% (w/w)), thus the precipitation architecture was not obtained below 20% (w/w). And particles size, particles size distribution (7–120 μm), and intrinsic viscosity of poly(AM‐DMC) (ranging up to 455 cm3/g) were also summarized in this article. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
