Abstract

Dispersion copolymerization of dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride with acrylamide has been investigated by the dilatometer technique using the mixture of poly(vinylpyrrolidone) and poly(dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride) as the composite stabilizer and 2,2′-azobis(2-methylpropionconidine)dihydro chloride as the initiator. Monomer reactivity ratios of AM and DMDAAC were determined by the application of Fineman-Ross methods. The analysis of reactivity ratios revealed that DMDAAC is less reactive than AM, and copolymers formed are statistically in nature. The influences of the molar ratio of AM to DMDAAC, concentrations of monomers, stabilizer and initiator, etc. on polymerization rate and intrinsic viscosity of polymer have been examined. The rate of polymerization (Rp) can be represented by \( {R_{\rm{p}}} \propto {[M]^{1.44}},{R_{\rm{p}}} \propto {[S]^{0.39}},{R_{\rm{p}}} \propto {[I]^{0.60}} \). The overall activation energy for the rate of polymerization is 37.38 kJ/mol over the temperature range 35–55°C.Based on the experimental results, the polymerization mechanisms were discussed.
