ABSTRACT:
Novel cationic hydrogels, containing basic (cationic) groups in their molecular structure, and processes for their preparation are described. These novel hydrogels are three-dimensional polymer networks, having good water permeability and mechanical properties, and are obtained by simultaneous polymerization and crosslinking, in the presence of a polymerization catalyst, such as an organic peroxide, azobisisobutyronitrile or other free radical polymerization catalyst, of a mixture of (a) hydroxyalkyl acrylate or methacrylate, (b) a cationic monomer -- usually an ester of acrylic or methacrylic acid with an amino alcohol, the terminal amino group of which may be quaternized, such as dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate or acrylate and the quaternized derivatives thereof, and (c) a cross-linking agent, such as a glycol diacrylate or dimethacrylate; if desired there may also be present (d) one or more additional monomers, usually an acrylic monomer such as an alkyl acrylate or methacrylate, acrylamides etc. (although other monomers such as vinyl acetate, styrene, etc. may also be used) which is copolymerizable with (a), (b) and (c). The thus obtained cationic hydrogels are useful for combining, by reaction or complexing, with materials having an opposite charge; such as acidic or anionic agricultural chemicals (insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, plant growth regulators, etc.), germicides, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, hormones, enzymes, flavors, fragrances, antiperspirants, metals and the like, both to recover such acidic or anionic materials from an aqueous medium and for purifying water containing them, and also for the preparation of a complex or other combination of the cationic hydrogel with such materials which may be useful per se or from which the complexed or combined acidic or anionic material may be slowly or controllably released.
