To synthesize high molecular weight polyacrylamide (PAM), you can follow the traditional method of free radical polymerization. Here's a step-by-step procedure:
1. Materials needed: Acrylamide (AM) monomer, a crosslinking agent (e.g., N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide), a free radical initiator (e....
Polyacrylamide (PAM) can be prepared via different methods, depending on the desired application and the desired properties of the polymer. Here are two common methods for the preparation of polyacrylamide:
1. Free Radical Polymerization:
- Monomer Selection: Acrylamide (CH2=CHCO...
