Evidence that ligand‐induced de‐gelation of Cr(+3)/polyacrylamide (PAAm) gels involves simple extraction of Cr(+3) from the gel matrix has been obtained from rheological studies. Kinetic experiments provide evidence that de‐gelation involves dissociative ligand exchange at Cr(+3). On the basis of de‐gelation results acetate is suggested to be a poor thermodynamic model for the bonding of PAAm to Cr(+3) and it is hypothesized that Cr(+3)/PAAm complexation may involve bonding to both a polymer carboxylate and a neighboring amide group.
