The conformation and dynamics study of amphoteric copolymers, P(sodium 2‐methacryloyloxyethanesulfonate‐co‐2‐methacryloyloxyethyltrimethylammonium iodide), using viscometry, 14N‐, and 23Na‐NMR
1995
Solution conformations and dynamic mobilities of novel amphoteric copolymers were studied for aqueous solutions of p(sodium 2-methacryloxyethanesulfonate-co-2-methacryloy-loxyethyltrimethylammonium iodide) [P(NaMES-co-METMAI)] as a function of com-position, concentration, and addition of HCI or KCI. As HCI or KCI was added successively to 5 w/v% copolymer solutions, the reduced viscosities of the solutions were reduced except the 1:1 copolymer solution. The dynamic mobility of the cationic side chain was estimated with the quadrupolar 14N-NMR relaxation technique. The motion of the interacting coun-terion, Na+, was studied by Poisson-Boltzmann electrostatic theories and the quadrupolar 23Na-NMR. Since the intramolecular 1:1 ion pair between MES- and METMA+ acts as an effective charge-screening factor, the copolymers P(NaMES-co-METMAI) behave as ordinary polyelectrolytes with the exception of the 1 : 1 copolymer. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
