Acrylamide %50
The chemical formula for Acrylamide, often known as acrylic amide, is CH2=CHC(O)NH2. It is a white, odorless solid that is soluble in water and a number of organic solvents. Acrylamide %50 is aqueous solution of solid Acrylamide. From a chemistry standpoint, Acrylamide is a primary amide that has had its vinyl group replaced (CONH2). It is primarily manufactured industrially as a precursor to polyacrylamides, which are widely used as water-soluble thickeners and flocculation agents.
Acrylamide is primarily used to create the materials polyacrylamide and acrylamide copolymers. The production of paper, pigments, and plastics as well as the treatment of drinking water and wastewater, including sewage, all make use of polyacrylamide and acrylamide copolymers. They can also be found in various adhesives, caulking, and food packaging, among other consumer goods.
Advantages of liquid Acrylamide:
There are 4 main advantages of using aqueous solution of Acrylamide which are; cost advantages, improved purity, processability and safer working environment.
Applications areas:
Polyacrylamide and acrylamide copolymers are generally made with acrylamide. In addition to other uses, polyacrylamides are flocculants and dispersants in the treatment of drinking water. High-molecular polyacrylamides can also be chemically altered by the addition of non-ionic, anionic, or cationic groups for a variety of uses, such as thickening or usage as a processing aid in the paper industry. In addition, the synthesis of dyestuffs as well as the production of different plastics require acrylamide as a co-polymer. Other industries that employ acrylamide polymers include the mining industry, the building industry (as an ingredient to hydraulic binders), the paper business (to improve tear resistance), and the oil sector (drill hole cement).
It is applied in the production of:
- Oil recovery-enhancing polymers,
- Polymers for reducing friction
- Polymers for reinforcing shale,
- Polymers for waste water flocculation,
- Paper binders and retention aids,
- Water-proofing substances,
- Additives for cement,
- Emulsions for coating and painting
- Chemicals and binders for textile sizing, adhesive binders,
