Abstract

Spectroscopic and thermal properties of Acrylamide-acrylamide 2- methyl propane sulphonic acid (AA-AMPS) copolymer have been investigated by spectrophotometric, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) techniques. The UV absorption studies indicate the presence of lead nano particles and FTIR results suggest that complexation has been taken place between reactive groups of copolymer and lead ion. Due to the presence of lead nano particles thermal stability of copolymer is increased.
