poly(vinyl acetate) is synthesized via solution polymerization, and then it is converted to poly(vinyl alcohol) by alkaline alcoholysis. the aim of the work study was to investigate statistically the  influence of reaction variables in vinyl acetate polymerization, the conversion of this monomer to polymer, degree of branching of acetyl group in poly(vinyl acetate), as well as the molecular wei...

thermodynamic study on the interaction of β-cd with poly ethylene oxide and poly acrylic acid was performed by isothermal titration calorimetry at 298k. when β-cd is added to the interpolymer complex, competition is created between host-guest and hydrogen bond. enthalpy of interaction between the β-cd and interpolymer complex was calculated using the extended solvation theory. p=1 shows that wi...

in this research, hydrogels based on poly vinyl alcohol and poly acrylic acid blend were prepared which were cross-linked by applied thermal conditions. afterward, effects of time and heating on water uptake were investigated. the highest water uptake value exhibited by the sample that was heated for 20 min. at 110 ºc was about 2129% after 4 days at equilibrium state. hydrogels exhibited ph-sen...

The paper presents the results of research on new electroconductive polymer materials, based polypyrrole, for different supercapacitor constructions, i.e., symmetric and asymmetric constructions. All supercapacitors considered contain ITO collectors. Measurements complex impedance frequency characteristics were performed these elements using electrochemical spectroscopy (EIS) method. Selected f...

the nanocomposites of poly (acryl amide-co-acrylic acid) with different contents of naazeolite were prepared using ammonium persulfate as an initiator and n, n′-methylenebisacrylamide as the crosslinker. the morphology was characterized by sem and the structure ofnanocomposite materials was studied with xrd and ft-ir that showed the interaction betweenporous materials and poly (aam-co-aac). the...
