Polymerizable surfactants now attract a great interest due to high potential of their practical application as components of pseudostationary phase in micellar chromatography, drug carriers and “building blocks” for molecular design of nanoparticles and nanostructured polymer materials, for encapsulation of various biological preparations. In the present work, we have studied poly(N-acryloyl-11-aminoundecanoic acid) (cross-linked comb-like polymer). Cross-linked polymers were obtained via copolymerization of the surfactant bearing double bond in hydrophobic tail with hydrophobic bifunctional cross-linker in micellar solution. Of special interest was the comparison between cross-linked and non-cross-linked polymers and influence of alkaline medium on characteristics of these samples. Non-cross-linked polymers were obtained by hydrolysis of the cross-linked product (treating with NaOH). The mixture of cyclohexanol and dioxane (1:1 volume ratio) was used as a solvent. Detailed studies of the obtained polymers by
