Review of Polymerization and Properties of Aminoalkyl Acrylates and Aminoalkyl Methacrylates

摘要

The purpose of this review is to identify commercially available alkyl methacrylate-co-alkylaminoalkyl methacrylate copolymers with an emphasis placed on ultrahigh molecular weight (MW) polymers of over 1 million daltons (i.e., megadalton polymers). The scope of this review might be limited to polymers produced by emulsion polymerization; however, many polymer properties are somewhat independent of MW or can be extrapolated from MW data, therefore, other polymerization methods are not excluded. The scope of this review is limited to foreign literature because polymerization and properties of domestic, commercially manufactured polymers were adequately reviewed by the authors. Keywords: Aminoalkyl acrylate; Aminoalkyl methacrylate; Alkyl methacrylate; Alkyl acrylate; Polymerization; Molecular weight; Polyelectrolyte complex; Configuration; Copolymer properties. (jes)
