High molecular weight acrylamide polymer production by high solids solution polymerization

摘要

A method of producing non-carboxylated, water-soluble polymers of acrylamide of high molecular weight and high solids (30-60%) comprising polymerizing acrylamide at 10-30 DEG C., a pH of 4.7 - 5.9 and in the presence of a sodium bromate-sodium sulfite catalyst and water, at least one dimension of the reaction media having a thickness of not more than about 3/4 inch, the concentration of said catalyst being determined by reference to the drawings.
