Description
This work reviews the recent developments in the behaviour of surfactant-modified, water-soluble polymers in aqueous solutions and more complex fluids, including cellulose ethers, acrylamide and alkali-swellable emulsions, ethoxylated urethanes, fluorinated and hydrocarbon hydrophobe-modified water-soluble polymers, and ethoxylated unimers with terminal hydrophobes. The book examines the fundamental aspects of associative polymers in aqueous solutions through rheology, fluorescence, pulsed-gradient spin-echo NMR, neutron scattering and turbidimetry measurements. It also discusses the use of water-soluble polymers in biodegradable and biological systems, and the development of unique hydrogels a new non-associative water-soluble polymers.
