| Abstract | To obtain an oil-displacement polymer with good thermal stability and solution properties, self-assembling acrylamide (AM)/4-butylstyrene (BST) copolymers (PSA) were synthesized by the micellar copolymerization technique. The resulting polymer was characterized by elemental analysis and UV and FT-IR spectroscopy. Conventional DSC measurement was used successfully to characterize the hydrophobic microblock structure of PSA, and two glass transition temperatures were found in the polymer: at 203 °C for the AM segments and at 106 °C for the hydrophobic BST segments. The initial decomposition temperature (234 °C) of the polymer is higher than that of polyacrylamide (210 °C). The DSC and TG results suggest that incorporation of BST into PSA enhances the molecular rigidity and thermal stability of the polymer. The apparent viscosity of a PSA solution greatly depends on the amount of BST in the polymer, and the polymer exhibits salt-thickening, temperature-thickening, thixotropy, pseudo-plastic behavior, anti shearing, and good anti-aging properties at 80 °C. In addition, the apparent viscosities of PSA solutions are increased remarkably by the addition of a small amount of surfactant. AFM measurements show that large block-like aggregates and small compact aggregates are formed in aqueous solutions of 0.4 g⋅dL$^{−1}$ PSA because of strong intermolecular hydrophobic associations, despite the low molecular weight, and their sizes increase upon addition of a small amount of salt. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
