Procedure: 250 ml of a warm 14.2 lbs/gallon Calcium Bromide solution (Baroid Drilling Fluids) is placed in an Erlenmeyer flask. 4.938 grams of acrylamide (Aldrich, 99%) is allowed to dissolve. This solution is then placed in a sep funnel and 7.7457 grams (9.61 ml) of acrylonitrile (Aldrich, 99%), 16.135 grams (15.96 ml) of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (Aldrich, 96%), and 0.5618 grams (0.540 ml) of diethylene glycol diacrylate (Monomer-Polymer & Dajac Laboratories, Catalogue No. 7945) are added. N2 is bubbled through the solution for 30 minutes. In a 40 dram glass vial, 0.378 grams of V-50 Azo initiator (Wako Chemicals USA, Inc.) is added to 28 ml of DI water and allowed to dissolve. 12.5 ml of the V-50 solution is then added to the calcium bromide solution and the solution is degassed for an additional 15 minutes. In a 500 ml baffled three necked reaction vessel, 400 ml of Norpar-12 (Exxon), with 0.75 g of Span 80 (sorbitan monooleate, ICI Americas, Inc.), is degassed for 45 minutes, while the norpar is being stirred with a six bladed R100 impeller, at 560 RPM. The calcium bromide solution is then added to the norpar solution, which is still being stirred, and the reaction runs for 15-18 hours, at approximately 70° C. to dissolve This solution is then placed in a sep funnel N2 is bubbled through the solution for 30 minutes In a 40 dram glass vial, 0.378 grams of V-50 Azo initiator (Wako Chemicals USA, Inc.) is added to 28 ml of DI water to dissolve 12.5 ml of the V-50 solution is then added to the calcium bromide solution the solution is degassed for an additional 15 minutes with 0.75 g of Span 80 (sorbitan monooleate, ICI Americas, Inc.), is degassed for 45 minutes, while the norpar The calcium bromide solution is then added to the norpar solution, which is still being stirred

Procedure: 650 grams of calcium bromide hydrate (Aldrich, 98%) is added to 500 ml of DI water and allowed to dissolve. 100 ml of this solution is placed in an Erlenmeyer flask. 2.9565 grams (3.67 ml) of acrylonitrile (Aldrich, 99%), 1.9803 grams of acrylamide (Aldrich, 99%), 6.4702 grams (6.40 ml) of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (Aldrich, 96%), and 0.1498 grams (0.144 ml) of diethylene glycol diacrylate (Monomer-Polymer & Dajac Laboratories, Catalogue No. 7945) are added to the 100 ml of CaBr2 solution. Heat may be necessary to dissolve the acrylamide in the CaBr2 solution. The flask is sealed with a rubber stopper and N2 is bubbled through the solution for 30 minutes. In a 20 dram glass vial, 0.144 grams of VA-086 is added to 10 ml of DI water and allowed to dissolve. Using a syringe, 5 ml of the VA-086 solution is added to the flask containing the reactants. The flask is swirled until well mixed and placed in an oven at 80° C. overnight to allow the gel to form. to dissolve Heat may is bubbled through the solution for 30 minutes In a 20 dram glass vial, 0.144 grams of VA-086 is added to 10 ml of DI water to dissolve 5 ml of the VA-086 solution is added to the flask containing the reactants until well mixed to form
