Reaction Steps

Polystyrenesulfonate (22.5 mmoles, 3.918 g), acrylamide (3.45 mmoles, 0.245 g), n-decylacrylamide (3.45 mmoles, 0.729 g) and divinylbenzene (0.6 mmoles, 85.5 microL) were dissolved in 15 mL ethanol and 5 mL water in a 40 mL vial fitted with a septa cap. The solution was degassed by bubbling nitrogen through and 1 mole % AIBN was added as a solution. The polymerization solution was further degassed and the placed in a heated reaction block at 60° C. for 18 h. A creamy yellow gel formed.
