Photoinitiation of polymerization of Acrylamide by Titanium Dioxide Aqueous Suspension System

Abstract

The acrylamide monomer is photopolymerized by aqueous Suspension of TiO₂ semiconductor (Anatase) at room temperature and light intensity (medium pressure mercury lamp.) of 19.44 mW/cm². Several parameters were explored that affected the photopolyerization process in this system, and these are:-
