Abstract: The synthesis and scale inhibition properties polyepoxysuccinic acid were investigated.The results show that the polymer obtained has excellent scale inhibition properties in the prescence of crown ether and sodium alcohol catalyst.The scale inhibition properties are affected by the reaction time,reaction temperature and amount of catalyst.The scale-inhibiting ratio can reach 95.3% under the conditions of cyclization reaction time 1.5 h,polymerization temperature 60 ℃,the amount of crown ether 1.0% and the ...
