Study of the segmental mobility of polymer chains is important when the polymer is used as drag reduction agents of crude oil. Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy can provide important information about segmental dynamics of polymer chains, which is related to their microenvironment. In this article, we employed an amphiphilic polymer to study the effect of hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance of the polymers on the segmental motion of polymer chains. Poly(styrene-co-maleic acid) (PSMA) was spin labeled with 4-amino TEMPO radicals by increasing the concentration of radical moiety on the polymer chains. The PSMA and spin labeled-PSMAs (SL-PSMAs) were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and ESR techniques. Inter-polymer complexes (IPCs) of SL-PSMA-2 were prepared by employing polyethylene glycols (PEGs) of varying molecular weights. The results showed that the increased hydrophobic interactions of nitroxide radicals on the SL-PSMAs’ chains reduced the rotational mobility of spin labels and the random coil-to-globular transition of polymer chains occurred at higher pH value for SL-PSMAs, which showed a slow motion component in the ESR spectra of SL-PSMAs. Further, by increasing the molecular weight of PEGs in IPCs the complexation was increased, which also reduced the rotational motion of spin labels due to interpolymer hydrogen bonding causing a slow motion component in the ESR spectra. |
