Embodiment 1

[0089] Preparation of Structured AMD-AETAC Copolymer Emulsions

[0090] This example describes the preparation of acrylamide (AMD) (60 mole %) and dimethylaminoethyl acrylate, methyl chloride, using N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide crosslinker and isopropanol chain transfer agent Inverse emulsion of structured cationic copolymer of quaternary salt (AETAC) (40 mole %).

[0091] Prepare the water phase by mixing the following ingredients together:

[0092] Acrylamide (50% aqueous solution) 210.00 grams

[0093] Dimethylaminoethyl acrylate, methyl chloride quaternary salt (80% solution) 238.74

[0094] Deionized water 120.00

[0095] Citric acid (anhydrous) 17.76

Embodiment 2-6

[0108] Additional copolymers of AMD and AETAC were prepared following the general procedure described in Example 1, using different relative amounts of comonomer and different amounts of MBA crosslinker, or without any crosslinker. The composition and properties of the resulting linear (Examples 5 and 6) or structured (Examples 2-4) cationic copolymers are listed in Table I below.

[0120] Preparation of linear or blends of less structured polymers and higher structured polymers

[0121] Using the polymer emulsions of Examples 1-6, six polymer blends were prepared by mechanically mixing the emulsions.

[0122] Mixing is accomplished by weighing the appropriate amount of polymer emulsion to be blended in a glass bottle, making sure that the bottle is about 1 / 4-1 / 3 empty for proper mixing. The capped bottle was then tumbled for approximately 1 hour to ensure thorough mixing was verified visually.

[0123] The compositions and SED values ​​of the resulting blends are listed in Table II below.

Abstract

The present invention provides blends of high molecular weight, water soluble cationic structured polymers with linear or less structured high molecular weight, water soluble, cationic polymers. The blend can be used to dewater dispersions of suspended solids, and good dehydration rates can be achieved at lower dosages.
