Via electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, the type of radicals occurring during acrylamide (AAm) homopolymerization in aqueous solution is investigated between -5 and +100 °C. The radicals are produced photochemically under stationary conditions. Midchain AAm radicals (MCRs) are clearly identified by EPR which demonstrates that secondary propagating AAm radicals (SPRs) undergo backbiting reactions. Above 50 °C, the fraction of MCRs even exceeds the one of SPRs. The extent of backbiting is however well below the one in butyl acrylate polymerization at identical temperature.
通过电子顺磁共振(EPR)光谱法,研究了在-5至+100°C之间水溶液中丙烯酰胺(AAm)均聚过程中产生的自由基类型。自由基是在固定条件下通过光化学产生的。EPR清楚地识别出链中AAm自由基(MCRs),这表明二级增长的AAm自由基(SPRs)会发生回咬反应。在50°C以上,MCRs的比例甚至超过了SPRs。然而,在相同温度下,回咬的程度远低于丙烯酸丁酯聚合中的程度。
