What is polyacrylamide used for?

Polyacrylamide has effects of flocculation, thickening, drag reduction, adhesive, colloidal stabilizing, filming and preventing scale. It is widely used in papermaking, mining, coal washing, metallurgy, oil exploitation and other industrial sectors and is also a important chemical for water treatment. Figure 1 The synthetic route of polyacrylamide.

What is polyacrylamide based on?

Yang, Tsung-Hua. Recent Patents on Materials Science 1.1 (2008): 29-40. Polyacrylamide, a synthetic polymer derived from acrylamide monomer, was first introduced as a support matrix for electrophoresis.

What is the pH range of polyacrylamide?

In the pH range of 3 to 9, it can maintain a good degree of stability; at high pH, the viscosity will be increased gradually. Miscibility: in generally used concentration, polyacrylamide has miscibility with most water-soluble natural or synthetic resins, latex systems, and most of the salts.

Is polyacrylamide soluble in water?

Figure 1 The synthetic route of polyacrylamide. Polyacrylamide is relatively stable to heat with its solid only being softened at 220~230 °C and its solution subjecting to significant degradation only at above 110 °C. Polyacrylamide is insoluble in benzene, toluene, xylene, gasoline, kerosene, diesel fuel, but soluble in water.

Is acrylamide a carcinogen?

Acrylamide appears as white crystalline solid shipped either as a solid or in solution. A confirmed carcinogen. Toxic by skin absorption. Less dense than water and soluble in water. May be toxic by ingestion. Used for sewage and waste treatment, to make dyes, adhesives.
