Is Apam-t a novel anionic polyacrylamide?

Conclusion APAM-T is a novel anionic polyacrylamide which has been successfully synthesized by ultrasonic initiated template copolymerization. Characterization results showed the evidence of the microblock structure’s existence and the enhancement of copolymerization degree by adding the template.

Can UV-initiated template polymerization prepare a novel anionic polyacrylamide with a microblock structure?

E-mail: zhl6512@126.com; Fax: +86 23 65120827; Tel: +86 23 65120827 Ultraviolet (UV)-initiated template polymerization (UTP) was used as a feasible strategy to prepare a novel anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) with a microblock structure.

How is anionic polyacrylamide synthesized?

Synthesis mechanism The anionic polyacrylamide was synthesized by copolymerizing AM and SAS monomers. The essence of copolymerization is the free radical reaction. Thus, this chain reaction can be divided into three distinct processes: initiation, propagation, and termination.

Does polyacrylamide flocculant dosage affect dewatering effect of sludge?

Zang et al. explored the impact of polyacrylamide flocculant dosage on the flocculation and dewatering effect of sludge . The dewatering effect was enhanced with the increase of the flocculant dosage when the flocculant dosage was lower than 1.20 g/L.

Does UV-initiated polymerization produce a new anionic flocculant TPAs with a microblock structure?

Conclusions A new anionic flocculant TPAS with the microblock structure was successfully synthesized through UV-initiated polymerization. The structure properties of TPAS was characterized by the FT-IR, 1H (13C) NMR, SEM and TG/DSC, and the results indicated that the formation of the microblock structure.

Does Pam degradation affect flocculant performance?

PAM-based flocculant degradation has been mainly studied for PAMs in aqueous solutions. The degradation of PAMs results in a reduction of the molecular weight of the polymer and can adversely affect the performance of such aqueous solutions in their commercial application as flocculants.
