Abstract
Water-soluble acrylamide monomers N-(hydroxymethyl)acrylamide, N-(hydroxymethyl)methacrylamide, N,N-diethanolacrylamide, N,N-diethanolmethacrylamide, N,N-methylethanolacrylamide, and N,N-methylethanolmethacrylamide have been synthesized and characterized. The kinetics and thermodynamics of the free-radical polymerization of these monomers and of the model compounds N-isopropylacrylamide and acrylamide have been studied by the methods of isothermal and scanning calorimetry. The structure and the solubility of the said polymers in water and organic solvents have been investigated and their molecular-mass characteristics and temperatures of glass transition (T g) and melting (T m) have been examined by DSC, liquid chromatography, 1H NMR and IR spectroscopy, and chemical analysis of functional groups. Hydrogels and amphiphilic network polymers based on acrylamide monomers have been prepared and characterized.
