Aqueous solutions containing polyvinylpyrrolidone and zinc and silver nitrates are studied by IR spectroscopy. It is shown that introduction of zinc and silver nitrates into polyvinylpyrrolidone solutions leads to a shift of the polymer absorption bands to lower wavenumbers. The results obtained indicate the possibility of formation of complexes consisting of polymer molecules and metal ions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
