In this article, we describe a novel pH-and temperature-sensitive and moderately salt tolerant hydrogels based on acrylic acid (AAc) and methacrylic acid (MAAc) by employing a novel research plan. AAc and MAAc have been converted to N-isopropylacrylamide (Ni-PAAm) and N-isopropyl methacrylamide (N-i-PMAAm), respectively, via amidation with isopropyl amine, followed by polymerization to respective polymers. These polymers were further converted into networks in the presence of AAc and MAAc and N,N-methylene bisacrylamide (N,NMBAAm). The networks thus formed consist of both amides and carboxylic acid groups. Characterization of these networks has been carried out by nitrogen analysis, FTIR, NMR, and scanning electron microscopy for the investigation of different structural aspects of the synthesized polymers. Swelling studies of these networks have been carried out as a function of time, temperature, pH, and in the presence of additives, sodium dodecyl sulfate, cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, and 5% NaCl solution.
