Abstract

In this paper, the structure and physico-mechanical properties of films of polyelectrolyte complexes (PEC) based on sodium carboxymethylcellulose (Na-CMC) with linear polyacrylamide (PAA) have been studied. Polyelectrolyte complexes were obtained by mixing aqueous solutions of Na-CMC and PAA components in various ratios of components and pH of the medium. The structure of the obtained products was determined using IR spectroscopy and electron microscopy. IR spectra in the range 400–4000 cm-1 were recorded on NIKOLET Magna-560 IR and Specord-75IR spectrophotometers (Carl Zeiss, GDR). The mechanical properties of films of polyelectrolyte complexes were determined by stretching at a constant speed of movement of the lower clamp, 50 mm/min, on an Instron-1100 automatic dynamometer (England) at room temperature. IR spectroscopic data showed that polyelectrolyte complexes based on Na-CMC and PAA were stabilized due to the cooperative ionic bond between Na-CMC carboxylate anions (-COO-) and amine groups (-NH2) of polyacrylamide. It is shown that PEC films with an equimolar ratio of Na-CMC and PAA components have an increased value of mechanical strength (σр = 38 MPa), elastic modulus (Е = 73 MPa) and a minimum relative elongation (ε = 0.5%). And in excess of Na-CMC or PAA leads to a decrease in mechanical strength and elastic modulus, which is associated with a decrease in the frequency of intermolecular bonds. It has been ascertained that water-soluble polyelectrolyte complexes based on Na-CMC and PAA with increased strength properties can be obtained from solutions of components taken at an equimolar ratio of interacting components. By changing the ratio of components, properties such as mechanical strength, modulus of elasticity and elongation can be controlled. This can serve as one of the means of controlling the structure and properties of Na-CMC and PAA polyelectrolyte complexes. The regulation of the physico-mechanical properties of PEC films opens up wide opportunities for their use as a soil structure former in agriculture and water management and as the basis for soft drugs in pharmacy.
