  • Patent number: 4501834
    Abstract: The formation of novel water soluble and water insoluble gels by interpolymer reactions of selective anionic polymers with selective cationic polymers in an aqueous medium, with either polymer serving as a cross-linking agent under specific conditions of speed and concentration. The selective cationic polymer is a quaternized ammonium polyelectrolyte selected from the group consisting of poly (diallyldimethylammonium chloride), poly (diallyldimethylammonium chloride-co-acrylamide), and a quaternary ammonium cellulose ether polymer. The anionic polymer is selected from the group consisting of a polysulfonic acid and alginic acid. The formation of the gel structure depends on fast and intensive interaction of the two opposite charges to insure a maximum amount of ion pair formation. The solubility of the gel depends on the formation of intimate or loose ion pairs; which depends on the charge density and structure of the polyelectrolytes. These interpolymer gels exhibit a dramatic increase in viscosity.
