Hydrodynamic and conformational characteristics of 4-methacryloylaminosalicylic acid sodium salt macromolecules
摘要
Sodium poly(4-methacryloylaminosalicylic acid) was synthesized by classical radical polymerization and studied by molecular hydrodynamics methods in dilute salt-free, salt and alkaline solutions in a 20-fold range of MM. The features of macromolecule compaction in solvents of different compositions, in which the sizes of macromolecules change more than 100 times, were considered. Molecular characteristics and the scaling relations [η] = (1.5 ± 0.1)×10–3×M0.86±0.01, s0= (4.5 ± 0.4)×10–15×M0.41±0.02, D0 = (3.2 ± 0.3)×10–4×M–0.59±0.01 were obtained in 0.1 M NaCl + 0.1 M NaOH. The Kuhn segment of the molecules was estimated using two consimilar and cognate methods – Gray–Bloomfield–Hearst theory and the software Multi-HYDFIT. A comparison with other macromolecular structures of vinyl series was made.
