Abstract

The molecular interactions between the component networks in poly(methacrylic acid)/poly(N‐isopropyl acrylamide) (PMAA/PNIPAAm) interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) were investigated using attenuated total reflectance (ATR)‐Fourier transform IR (FTIR) spectroscopy. Hydrogen‐bond formation was noted between the carboxyl groups of PMAA and the amide groups of PNIPAAm. The ATR‐FTIR results showed shifts in the carboxylic and amide groups, indicating the existence of hydrogen bonding between these two individual networks within the IPNs. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

## Abstract Three series of novel semi‐interpenetrating polymer networks, based on crosslinked poly(__N__‐isopropylacrylamide), PNIPA, and different amounts of the linear poly(__N__‐vinylpyrrolidone), PVP, were synthesized to improve the mechanical properties and thermal response of PNIPA gels.

A new type of interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) pervaporation membranes based on cellulose and synthetic polymers was developed. They were prepared by free-radical polymerization of acrylamide or acrylic acid in the presence (or absence) of the crosslinking agent (allyldextran or N,N-methyleneb
