Why do polyacrylamides need dissolution equipment?

Polyacrylamides always require specific dissolution equipment to ensure that the polymer is properly dissolved in water. Kemira is the first chemical supplier to offer a range of biobased polymers, in the Industrial polyacrylamides product line, helping customers to make their processes more sustainable, without any compromise in performance.

What are the types of industrial polyacrylamides?

The types of flocculants, in other words industrial polyacrylamides, are cationic, anionic or nonionic polyacrylamides. Kemira’s polyacrylamides of wide range of charge and molecular weight are sold in dry powder or emulsion format and have excellent performance.

What are the different types of polyacrylamide (PAM)?

YASA ET is supplier of three different kinds of PAM: non-ion polyacrylamide (NPAM), cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM), and anionic polyacrylamide (APAM). Click here to learn more. PAM chemical compounds are used to flocculate and coagulate suspended solids in water, wastewater, and soil.

What is cationic polyacrylamide used for?

Cationic polyacrylamides are used, among other things, for the dewatering of sludge from biological treatment processes. Typically, the higher the share of biological sludge in the total amount of sludge, the higher the cationic charge density required in the polymer.

What are anionic polyacrylamides used for?

Anionic polyacrylamides are used, among other things, for water clarification and process water recycling. Anionic polyacrylamides are easier to polymerize to very high molecular weights. We produce anionic powder flocculants / polyacrylamides (ADPAM) with anionic charge density ranging from 0-100%.

What is cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM)?

2. Cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM) This type of polymer has molecules that carry positive charge. Cationic PAM can pick up negatively charged particles (organic materials like carbon or human waste). CPAM is very efficient in usage and has high dehydration rate.
