At the present time, the annual synthesis of polymer and copolymers based on acrylamide is 1,5 million tons. Polyacrylamides perform a multifunctional function due to the possibilities of their properties. Used in various fields such as medicine, cosmetics, mineral processing, water treatment, oil refining, agriculture, paper making.
Although, polymers have a wide range of applications, there is little information in the literature about their hydrodynamic properties. By studying the properties of PAA, one can determine new areas of its application, including the possibility of monitoring colloidal chemical processes in dispersed systems. In addition, the preparation of new compositions of high-molecular-weight surfactants based on PAA is of interest for research of the surface activity of PAA.
