Notes:
Formation of interpolymer complexes of poly(5-vinyltetrazole) and poly(5-izopropenyltetrazole) with poly(acrylamide), poly(ethylene oxide), poly(1-vinylpyrrolidone), and poly(1-vinyl-1,2,4-triazole) was investigated by potentiometry and viscometry. The reduced activity of tetrazol-containing polyacids in reaction with poly(1-vinylpyrrolidone) from polyacrylic polyacids was explained by steric hindrances at the expense of bulky tetrazolic rings. There is a strong system of hydrogen bonds in the poly(5-vinyltetrazole) solution that leads to decreasing of its activity in the complexation in comparison with poly(5-izopropenyltetrazole). Hydrophobic interactions between methyl groups of poly(5-izopropenyltetrazole) lead to additional stabilization of the complexes at low degrees of ionization and to fast destruction of them at ionization degrees corresponding to destruction of the compact conformation of poly(5-izopropenyltetrazole) (α = 0.2-0.4). Interaction of poly(5-vinyltetrazole) with poly(1-vinyl-1,2,4-triazole) at elevated pH leads to an interpolymer complex stabilized by donor-acceptor interactions between the π-systems of tetrazolate anions and triazole rings. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
