Abstract
T~E polymerization of acrylamide has previously been studied mainly in solution in water [1-12], in which the monomer and polymer are readily soluble, and also in the solid state under the influence of high energy radiation [13]. Some isolated experiments on polymerization of acrylamide in methanol, which precipitates the polymer, in water and in water-alcohol mixtures [14] have shown that increase in the water content of the water-alcohol mixture leads to increase in the specific viscosity of the polymer. The rate of polymerization in dilute aqueous solution is approximately an order of magnitude higher than in methanol. The present work is devoted to a more detailed examination of the effect of methanol on the polymerization of acrylamide.
