The invention discloses a preparation method of
sodium polyacrylate, which belongs to the technical field of
food processing, and comprises the following steps: weighing a certain amount of
acrylic acid, diluting with deionized water, adding into a multi-neck flask, preparing a NaOH solution with a certain concentration, stirring, adding into the flask until a
neutralization reaction is completed to obtain a
sodium acrylate solution, and adding the
sodium acrylate solution into a reaction kettle for reaction; taking a certain amount of
activated carbon for adsorption treatment, carrying out suction
filtration to obtain a
sodium acrylate refined solution, and repeatedly vacuumizing for multiple times; according to the method, on the basis of a
redox initiator (
ammonium persulfate-sodium
hydrogen sulfite), a high-efficiency chain
extender dimethylaminopropionitrile is added to form a composite
initiation system, and the influence of the addition amount of the composite initiator, the
monomer concentration, the reaction time and the
reaction temperature on the
viscosity of the prepared
sodium polyacrylate is discussed respectively. Then, optimal preparation
process conditions are determined through an orthogonal test, and the performance of the prepared
sodium polyacrylate is measured, so that the practical application effect of the whole method is greatly improved.
