abstract |
The invention relates to a novel sulfobetaine monomer and to a process for the preparation thereof, advantageously by reaction between a vinyl-amine compound and a vinyl-sulfonic acid compound, preferably in the presence of a solubilizing agent. The invention also relates to the (co)polymers obtained from this novel type of sulfobetaine monomer, and to the use thereof, for example as a flocculant, dispersing agent, thickening agent, absorbent agent or friction reducing agent. |
