Synopsis
Polymerization reaction of sodium acrylate (AA-Na) in the presence of poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) was studied. A new “water in water” emulsion formed when the mol ratio of PEG and poly (sodium acrylate) (PAS) was >1:1. Since this polymerization method gives high molecular weight polymer although the reaction product is low in viscosity, it is useful in obtaining water soluble polymers for such use as a thickener and flocculant.
