The results on swelling behavior and the structure of composite gels based on poly(acrylamide), as well as copolymers of acrylamide with cationic monomer units, with incorporated bentonite clay in solutions of sodium chloride and ionic surfactants will be presented [1], [2]. Both the charges of the gel and of the clay play a role of the centers of adsorption of oppositely charged surfactants, cetylpyridinium chloride and sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate. The Coulombic attraction between the ions of the cationic network and the negative charges of bentonite results in significant shrinking of the gel, which gives rise to amphoteric properties. Both the anionic and cationic surfactants, participate in a competition interaction with the charges of the amphoteric composite and their absorption leads to the marked swelling of the gel. The clay embedded in the gels can be kept in the highly dispersed state after modification with the surfactants while the suspension of the free clay coagulates. The ESR data show that the adsorption of CPC on the clay platelets leads to the formation of ordered surfactant aggregates with low molecular mobility in the region of surfactant concentrations much below the cmc. A SAXS study demonstrates that further adsorption of the surfactant results in the formation of lamellas, including alternating layers of clay platelets and double layers of CPC. These two steps of the adsorption are accompanied by the strong shrinking of the gel composite. At high concentrations of the surfactant, total overcharging of the surface of the clay particles occurs, resulting in a change in the direction of the electroosmotic transport of water through the gel and in the reswelling of the gel composite. The models of the clay/surfactant complexes in the gel phase will be discussed. 2. A new type of intermacromolecular system consisting of a flexible polymer gel with embedded rigid-rod linear polyelectrolyte has been investigated for polyacrylamide hydrogel and linear poly(4,4''-(disodium 2,5-dimethyl-1,1':4',1''-terphenyl-3',2''-disulfonate)). It has been shown that the incorporation of stiff-chain polyelectrolyte inside the uncharged network improves both the ability to absorb water and the mechanical strength of the gel [3]. This makes such systems potentially promising as superabsorbent materials. A surprising effect is that the rods are effectively retained by the gel although they are not covalently attached to the network chains [3]. This is apparently due to the formation of aggregates of rods, which pinch some of the network chains. Self-aggregation of rods was studied by small-angle neutron scattering [4]. It was shown that both inside the hydrogel and in aqueous solution polyelectrolyte rods self-assemble into cylindrical aggregates having eight to nine single polymer chains in the cross-section, the chains being aligned parallel to the axis of the aggregate. The length of these aggregates is much higher than the contour length of a single chain. Gels with embedded rods were studied by contrast variation method in order to examine separately the scattering by the gel and by the rods [4]. Two important observations were made. First, it was shown that the ordering of the rods in the gel resembles that in solution. Second, it was shown that the gel itself is more homogeneous in the presence of rods. Most
2 probably, this effect is due to mobile counterions of rods, which counteract the formation of spatial inhomogeneities in the network during synthesis, because in an inhomogeneous network mobile counterions should be also distributed nonuniformly that is associated with significant translational entropy losses. 3. A simplest theory of swelling of microporous Swiss-cheese polyelectrolyte gels (i.e. polyelectrolyte gels containing regular set of closed water voids) in the solution of 1-1 lowmolecular salt and for the case of multivalent ions solution will be described [5], [6]. It was found that the voids of such gels effectively absorb co-ions. The degree of this absorption increases with the increase of average size of the voids and of their concentration. The theory allows the estimation of the size of water voids starting from which the condition of electroneutrality of water void is fulfilled and concentration of charged co-ions is equal to that in external solution. It was shown that in many cases the effect of concentrating of co-ions in water voids can be observed for water voids of few micrometers or smaller. The multivalent ions within Swiss-cheese gel are distributed inhomogeneously, their concentration within water voids is higher than that in polymer matrix. The degree of ions redistribution is characterised by partition coefficient k (determined as ratio void mat void mat k D = ns ns of the concentrations n s and n s in water void and in polymer matrix correspondingly). It is shown that the partition coefficient k D can be larger than 10 for lowmolecular salt, reaches 10 3 for bivalent ions and is higher than 10 6 for tetravalent ions. In the case of polymer macroions the partition coefficient k D tends to infinity. The ions redistribution within a gel will be preserved when a gel is taken out of solvent. These facts prove that the polyelectrolyte Swisscheese gel can be used as microreactors with well-defined and easily designed form and size, and that such gels can serve as media with extremely inhomogeneous distribution of charged species. The first experimental realizations of this idea will be reported. 1. S.G.Starodoubtsev, N.A.Churochkina, A.R.Khokhlov.

11 Polyelectrolyte rods CH 3 SO3 - Na + Degree of polymerization P w =240 [ ] n CH 3 SO3 - Na + Polyelectrolyte rods contain: hydrophobic rigid poly(p-phenylene) backbone, hydrophilic charged sulfo-groups, which ensure the solubility of the polymer in water. Due to the hydrophobic character of the main chain these polymers undergo self-association in aqueous media.

Each aggregate contains 3 single polymer chains in a cross-section independently of polymer concentration. Cylindrical aggregates are arranged in a hexagonal lattice. R.Rulkens, G. Wegner, T.

14 Preparation of polyacrylamide gel with incorporated polyelectrolyte rods Free-radical copolymerization of acrylamide with cross-linking agent (N,N -methylenebisacrylamide) in aqueous solution of rods As a result of the formation of polyacrylamide network the rods become trapped by the gel.
15 Conditions of preparation of composite gels Gel [monomer], g/l [cross-linker] / [monomer] [rods], g/l PAAm1* 47 1:300 9 PAAm2* 47 1:200 9 PAAm3* 47 1:100 9 PAAm4* 90 1:200 9 PAAm5* 90 1: PAAm1 47 1:300 0 PAAm2 47 1:200 0 PAAm3 47 1:100 0 PAAm4 90 1:200 0 A series of composite gels differing in the cross-linking density, in the concentration of monomer at synthesis and in the content of rods was prepared. The content of rods in the dried gel: 9-18 wt.%.
16 Superabsorbent properties of composite gels Gel PAAm gel without rods PAAm gel with rods Degree of swelling The introduction of polyelectrolyte rods into the uncharged gel improves the ability of the gel to absorb water. This is a consequence of the osmotic pressure exerted by counterions of the rigid-rod polyelectrolyte.
17 Osmotic pressure of counterions of polyelectrolyte rods uncharged network charged rods counterions The counterions cannot escape outside the gel because of the condition of macroscopic electroneutrality. In order to gain in the translational entropy the counterions try to occupy as much volume as possible, thus creating an exerting osmotic pressure.
18 Mechanical properties of composite gels Elasticity modulus G, kpa 2,5 2,0 1,5 1,0 0,5 0,0 PAAm1 (1:300) PAAm2 (1:200) PAAm3 (1:100) with rods without rods Gels with trapped polyelectrolyte rods possess significantly higher moduli of elasticity than the corresponding reference gels without rods.
19 Advantages of composite gels Polyelectrolyte rods impart useful properties to the gel: - higher ability to absorb water, - higher mechanical strength. The counterions of the charged rods are responsible for the enhancement of the absorption capacity of the gel, while the presence of stiff elements in the gel structure gives rise to the increase of the modulus of elasticity. This makes such systems potentially promising as superabsorbent materials.
20 Retention of rods within the gel in water Gel [monomer], g/l [cross-linker] [monomer] Fraction of rods released from the gel [rods in gel] [rods in solution] PAAm1* 47 1: PAAm2* 47 1: PAAm3* 47 1: PAAm4* 90 1: Polyelectrolyte rods are effectively retained by the gel, although they are not covalently attached to the network chains. The release of rods decreases with increasing (1) degree of cross-linking of the network, (2) concentration of monomer (acrylamide) at the gel preparation.
21 Retention of rods within the gel in aqueous salt solution Fraction of PPP3 released by the gel 0,35 0,30 0,25 0,20 0,15 0,10 0,05 gel PAAm2* gel PAAm4* 0,00 0,00 0,02 0,04 0,06 0,08 0,10 Concentration of NaCl, mol/l The low molecular weight salt almost completely suppresses the release of rods from the gel.
22 Polyelectrolyte rods are not linked to the network chains, but... why they are effectively retained by the gel? why they affect the elasticity modulus of the gel? This may be due to the formation of self-aggregates of rods, which jam some of the network chains, because the length of rods (~150 nm) is much higher than the mesh size of the gel (~12 nm).
23 Indications to self-aggregation of rods inside the gel degree of swelling (m-m 0 )/m PAAm-AMPS gel curve corrected for Manning condensation PAAm gel with rods 0 0,0 0,5 1,0 1,5 2,0 2,5 3,0 3,5 % of charged groups homogeneous distribution of charges PAAm - AMPS gel NH 2 NHC(CH 3 ) 2 CH 2 SO - 3 N ( CH 2 -CH ) n ( CH 2 -CH ) m C=O C=O inhomogeneous distribution of charges PAAm gel with charged rods CH 3 SO 3 - Na + [ ] n H 3 C SO 3 - Na + The degree of swelling of the gel, which «senses» the state of counterions, indicates to self-aggregation of rods inside the gel
24 Release of non-aggregated polyelectrolyte by the gel Percent of linear polyelectrolyte released from the gel 98% 95% 13% Flexible non-aggregated Rigid-rod non-aggregated Rigid-rod aggregated Poly(styrene sulfonate) in water Rods in water/methanol mixture Rods in water Non-aggregated polyelectrolyte is almost completely released from PAAm gel
25 Release of rods from similarly charged polyelectrolyte gel Anionic rods in poly(sodium methacrylate) gel % PPP3 released water 0.01M NaCl 0.05M NaCl 0.5M NaCl time, hrs Rods are completely released from similarly charged gel When electrostatic repulsion is screened by salt, most of the rods are retained by the gel
26 Conclusions Polymer gels with entrapped polyelectrolyte rods were prepared. Polyelectrolyte rods impart useful properties to the gel: - higher ability to absorb water, - higher mechanical strength. Although polyelectrolyte rods are not covalently attached to the network chains, they are effectively retained by the gel. This may be due to the formation of self-aggregates of rods including some of the network chains.

71 WIDE ANGLE AND SMALL ANGLE X- RAY SCATTERING Wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) measurements were performed at the Polytechnic of Milan with a θ/θ diffractometer (ITAL Structures). Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements were performed: a) at the Polytechnic of Milan with a Bruker NANOStar diffractometer; b) at the Institute of Crystallography, Russian Academy of Sciences with the Kratky-type (infinitely long slit geometry) Amur 3K diffractometer. In all of the experiments the X-ray wavelength was λ = nm. The scattering vector is defined as q=4π sinθ /λ, where 2θ is the scattering angle. The d-spacing was calculated by the formula: d=2π/q. The mean long-range order dimension L in the gel/surfactant complexes was estimated from the Bragg peaks on the SAXS patterns by the Scherrer formula: L= λ/(β s cos θ.) where β s is the full width at a half-maximum intensity of the peak (in radians) observed at a mean scattering angle of 2θ.

73 THEORY Development of the theory of swelling of polymer gels with water-filled voids The theory of swelling and of sorption properties of such gels will be constructed on the basis of the mean field theory of swelling and collapse of a homogeneous polyelectrolyte gel. The formation of the regular structures within the gel with significantly different concentrations of charged species can be analyzed as function of different system parameters, i.e. the degree of polymerization and the degree of ionization of the polymer gel subchains, the size of the water voids, the valence of added ions and their concentration, etc.

81 Conclusion The simplest theory of Swiss-cheese polyelectrolyte gel is proposed. It was found that the voids of such gels effectively absorb co-ions. Therefore, the distribution of co-ions within the gel is highly inhomogeneous. It was shown that in the case of macroscopic water voids, the concentration of co-ions within voids is always higher than that in polymer matrix and can be equal to that in external solution. Our theory allows to estimate the size of water voids starting from which the condition of electroneutrality of water void is fulfilled and concentration of charged co-ions is equal to that in external solution. It was shown that in many cases the effect of concentrating of co-ions in water voids can be observed for water voids of few micrometers or smaller. This fact allows to propose that the polyelectrolyte Swiss-cheese gel could be used as microreactors with well-defined and easily designed form and size. A.A.Aerov, V.Vasilevskaya, A.R.

98 CONCLUSIONS 1. The theory of behavior of polyelectrolyte gels with incorporated voids predict that the concentration of co-ions in the charged gels is significantly decreased in comparison with their concentration in the voids. The effect of the gel structure and the charge of the ions is analyzed. 2. Polyelectrolyte gels with embedded voids can be obtained via three dimension polymerization in the presence of oil in water emulsion. The size distribution of the voids can be regulated by changing surfactant concentration during emulsion preparation. 3. The ions having the same sign of the charge as a gel are concentrated in the voids, while in the gel body their concentration is significantly lowered. 4. Linear polyelectrolytes and micelles do not penetrate in the charged gel of the like charge. 5. Polyelectrolyte gels containing the voids with charged walls are synthesized. They have enhanced ability to absorb oppositely charged surfactants.
