Molecular Structure of Polyacrylimide

10/21/2008 9:09 AM

Hey guys,

A colleague of mine has asked me to write a description of the behavior of Polyacrylimide for an item in his science educational supply catalog. I have done my homework and written the description. However, I would like to include a picture of the molecule so that teachers can have a visual representation of what happens when the material absorbs water. I have found some diagrams online, but I don't want to violate copyright especially since this is for a catalog.

Can anyone point me to some resources? Does anyone know how copyrights apply to drawings of molecular structures?

Thanks guest, but I've already been there. They have some good illustrations, but how do copyrights come into play with wiki's photos and drawings?
