disodium;2-methylidenebutanedioate

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: 0.2 part by weight of the sodium salt of a sulfated addition product of triisobutylphenol and 7 mols of ethylene oxide (emulsifier A) and 0.02 part by weight of potassium peroxodisulfate are dissolved in 61.5 parts by weight of completely desalted water at 80° C. in a polymerization vessel provided with a reflux condenser, stirrer, thermometer, and feed vessel. An emulsion, earlier prepared from 83 parts by weight of ethyl acrylate, 10 parts by weight of methoxy polyethyleneglycol methacrylate [formula (I), n=15], 5 parts by weight of disodium itaconate, 1.2 parts by weight of N-hydroxymethyl methacrylamide, 0.8 part by weight of methacrylamide, 2.3 parts by weight of emulsifier A, 1 part by weight of the addition product formed between isononylphenol and 100 mols of ethylene oxide (emulsifier B), 0.18 part by weight of potassium peroxodisulfate, and 94 parts by weight of desalted water, is added dropwise to this solution at 80° C. over a period of 4 hours. After addition is complete, the reaction temperature is kept for one further hour at 80° C. and subsequently the mixture is cooled to room temperature. A coagulate-free dispersion having a solids content of about 40% is obtained. provided with a reflux condenser, stirrer

Conditions: temp:75.01; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Into a 1 liter resin flask fitted with a stirrer, condensor, thermometer, nitrogen inlet and port for adding liquid is placed 425 g of deionized water, 200 g of a 50% solution of acrylamide, 276 g of a 50% solution of AMPS, 30 g of a 40% solution of disodium itaconate and 0.24 g of Versene 100. The solution is stirred and to it added 0.2 g of sodium hypophosphite dissolved in 16 g of deionized water. The solution is stirred, nitrogen introduced sub-surface and the solution then heated to 75° C. by means of an external heating jacket. A solution of 2.5g of sodium persulfate in 50 g of deionized water is prepared and placed in a metering pump connected to the resin flask at the inlet port with a fine tygon tubing. The persulfate solution is added uniformly over a period of 2 hours, maintaining a temperature of 75° C.±2° C. by initially cooling and then warming. At the end of the persulfate addition, 75° C. is maintained for an additional 1 hour, the solution cooled to 40° C. and discharged. The resulting product was a clear, light green-yellow liquid with a solids content of 25%. The viscosity, as measured on a Brookfield viscometer was 7,500 cps, spindle 3, speed 12. The pH of the solution was 7 to 7.6. The molecular weight of the polymer was about 500,000 as measured by GPC. The product was completely water miscible. Into a 1 liter resin flask fitted with a stirrer condensor, thermometer, nitrogen inlet and port for adding liquid The solution is stirred maintaining a temperature of 75° C.±2° C. by initially cooling warming is maintained for an additional 1 hour the solution cooled to 40° C.
