What is anionic polyacrylamide (Apam)?

Anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) series products are water-soluble linear polymers synthesized under high degree polymerization, easily soluble in water, almost insoluble in the benzene, the ether, the aliphatics, the acetone and other common organic solvents.

What type of polyacrylamide is Apam?

Amphoteric Polyacrylamide. APAM is formed by hydrolysis and copolymerization of vinyl amide and vinyl cationic monomer acrylamide monomer. It is an irregular zwitterionic polymer with both positive and negative charges on the molecular chain. Non-ionic Polyacrylamide.

How can polyacrylamide and inorganic flocculants improve water quality?

Improve water quality. In drinking water treatment and industrial wastewater treatment, the combined use of polyacrylamide and inorganic flocculants can significantly improve water quality. Improve the strength and settling speed of flocs.

What is anionic polyacrylamide (Apam) powder used for?

Application: Anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) powder is versatile and widely used in sludge dewatering, wastewater treatment, papermaking, water clarification, oilfield applications, textile sizing, and as a versatile polymer for thickening, flocculation, stabilization, adhesion, and biomedical materials.

What is a high molecular weight polyacrylamide (PAM)?

Low molecular weight PAM can be used as a paper strengthening agent. Medium molecular weight polyacrylamide PAM is used as a retention and drainage aid. And high molecular weight polyacrylamide is used as a flocculant in the treatment of papermaking wastewater. At present, anionic PAM is most used in the paper industry.

Can polyacrylamide be used as a coagulant aid?

Reduce the amount of flocculant. Under the premise of achieving the same water quality, the use of polyacrylamide as a coagulant aid in combination with other flocculants can greatly reduce the amount of flocculant used. Improve water quality.
