Notes:
Formation of the HPAM-Tb3 complex in solution was observed in the intensification of Tb(III) fluorescence, viscosity, and light scattering. The interaction is dependent on the degree of hydrolysis of the copolymer and the pH of the solution. As the pH value increases, an intensification of the interaction and formation of a gel is observed. The latter was associated with the appearance of crosslinks in which terbium, or one of its hydrolysis products, works as a binding agent between chains. After drying, the characterization of the residues of the gels was effected by analytical determination (C, H, N, Cl, Tb), fluorescence, and infrared spectrophotometry. The analysis and fluorescence revealed the existence of particles of terbium hydroxide; the infrared spectrophotometry showed the binding of terbium (III) to carboxylate of the copolymer.
