SYNTHESIS AND RADICAL POLYMERIZATION OF BENZAMIDMETACRYLATE

Abstract

The data on the synthesis of the new monomer benzamidmetacrylate are presented in the article. Its composition and structure were established by physical and chemical methods of research. The regularities of radical homopolymerization reactions in mass and in benzene solution were studied with the aim of creating a new biocidal polymeric material for medical preparations. It is shown that polymerization under these conditions proceeds through the vinyl bond, without an induction period, at a constant initial rate without the formation of by-products, a monotonic increase in conversion up to 92% with the formation of a soluble polymer is observed. The composition and structure of the obtained polymer were established by elemental and spectral analyses. It showed that the polymer was characterized by a low toxicity at a significant biocidal activity towards E.coli and St.Aureus and that this polymer can be used in various fields, in particular as a biocidal preparation, a carrier of dosage forms in medicine. In addition, this polymer also exhibites optical translucency and can be used in optics.
