Synthesis and Characterization of Poly (N-vinylcaprolactam)

Poly(N-vinylcaprolactam) (PVCL) was synthesized by free-radical bulk polymerization in aqueous solution with azodiisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiator and N-vinylcaprolactam (VCL) as reactants. The effects of initiator and solvent dosages, reaction time and reaction temperature on polymerization of the polymer were studied. The reaction mechanism of PVCL synthesized in aqueous solution was analysed. Under the optimum reaction conditions of mass ratio of VCL:AIBN:H2O=1:0.05:15, reacting for 5 h at 75℃, the most yield of PVCL was 97%. The average molecular weight of the polymer was evaluated with gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Its structure was analyzed by infrared spectrometry (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1HNMR). The low critical solution temperature was 32℃, which was measured by spectrophotometer.
