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 are Pam chemical compounds used for?

PAM chemical compounds are used to flocculate and coagulate suspended solids in water, wastewater, and soil. They assist in management of the Earth’s soil and water. In the straight-chain form, it is also used as a thickener and suspending agent.

What is anionic polyacrylamide used for?

APAM can be widely used in waste water treatment of chemical industry, municipal sewage treatment, such as coal washing, mineral processing, metallurgy, iron and steel industry and electronic industry.

What is the abbreviation for polyacrylamide?

The abbreviation of Polyacrylamide is PAM, it is a chemical which purchased in dry, emulsion, liquid and tablet form. 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.

Why do water treatment plants use polyacrylamide?

This allows water treatment plants to greatly improve the removal of total organic content (TOC) from raw water. Another common use of polyacrylamide and its derivatives is in subsurface applications such as Enhanced Oil Recovery.

Can NPAM be dissolved in cold water?

NPAM is highly water-soluble and can be completely dissolved in cold water. Therefore, adding a small amount of non-ionic polyacrylamide can obtain a good flocculation effect.
