Abstract: | Salt resistivity of poly (4-vinyl benzoic acid) (P4VBA) gel was investigated to compare with the super salt-resistivity that
was found for poly (4-vinyl phenol)(P4VPh) gel containing an acidic proton and π-electron system. Poly(acrylic acid) (PAA)
gel was also prepared and used as a reference gel containing only an acidic proton. P4VBA gel showed a moderate salt resistivity,
which was less significant than that for P4VPh gel, in many kinds of inorganic salt solutions (MgCl2, LiCl, NaCl, KCl, CsCl, KI, KSCN, Na2SO4). On the other hand, PAA gel showed a drastic deswelling in the presence of concentrated MgCl2, LiCl, Na2SO4, and (NH4)2SO4 solutions, and a significant swelling for KSCN solution. These contrastive behaviors between P4VBA and PAA gels strongly
suggest that the combination of acidic proton and π-electron system is essential and necessary for polymer gels to be endowed
with the salt resistivity. |
