Poly(acrylic acid) interpolymer complexation: use of a fluorescence time resolved anisotropy as a poly(acrylamide) probe

Yes / A low concentration poly(acrylamide) sensor has been developed
which uses the segmental mobility of another polymer probe with a
covalently attached fluorescent marker. Interpolymer complexation
with poly(acrylic acid) leads to reduced segmental mobility which can
be used to determine the concentration of polymer in solution. This
technique could be useful in detecting the runoff of polymer dispersants
and flocculants in fresh water supplies following water purification
processes. / Funding for the research was kindly provided by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).
