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 (CPAM)?

Cationic Polyacrylamide. In general, CPAM is white powder in appearance with an ionic degree ranging from 20% to 55%. It has the characteristics of high polymer electrolyte and is suitable for the treatment of wastewater with negative charge and rich in organic matter.

What is nonionic polyacrylamide?

3. Nonionic Polyacrylamide (Nonionic PAM, NPAM) Structure and Properties: Nonionic PAM is a high molecular polymer or polyelectrolyte with a certain amount of polar genes in its molecular chain.

What is anionic polyacrylamide (Apam)?

Anionic polyacrylamide (Anionic PAM, APAM) Structure and properties: Anionic PAM is a water-soluble polymer. By introducing these anionic groups on the polymer backbone, APAM can react with positively charged substances. It is mainly used for flocculation, sedimentation and clarification of various industrial wastewaters.

Is cationic polyacrylamide soluble in water?

Cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM) is highly soluble in water and can form clear solutions at low concentrations.Due to the positively charged functional groups, Cationic polyacrylamide (CPAM) can attract and bond with negatively charged particles and suspended solids in water, leading to flocculation and sedimentation.

What is the function of cationic polyacrylamide?

We're here to help: Easy ways to get the answers you need. Cationic polyacrylamide, is a white powder water -soluble polymer which is copolymerized by cationic monomer and acrylamide. It has the function of decolorizing, adsorbing, turbid eliminating and bonding. It generate a good flocculation and can decrease the resistance between liquids.
