Acrylamide

Formula: CH2=CHC(O)NH2 GOST/CAS: CAS: 79-06-1

Acrylamide is an organic compound that appears as a white, odorless crystalline substance. It is highly soluble in water, ethanol, and other polar solvents. As a highly reactive monomer, acrylamide easily polymerizes to form polyacrylamide. The primary industrial purpose of this product is its use as a fundamental raw material for the synthesis of water-soluble polymers and copolymers, which are widely utilized in environmental, industrial, and technological processes.

Applications

Water Treatment & Environment: Production of high-efficiency flocculants and coagulants for purifying drinking, industrial, and wastewater.

Oil & Gas Production: Synthesis of polyacrylamides used in drilling fluids, hydraulic fracturing, and enhanced oil recovery (EOR).

Pulp & Paper Industry: Used as a binding agent for fiber retention and to increase the dry strength of paper products.

Polymer Manufacturing: A base monomer for obtaining a wide range of polyacrylamides, gels, and thickeners for the textile and chemical sectors.

Key Advantages

High Reactivity: Readily enters into polymerization and copolymerization reactions, allowing for the creation of polymers with precisely defined properties.

Excellent Solubility: Perfectly soluble in water, which is critical for the synthesis of water-soluble polymers and efficient technological processing.

Raw Material Versatility: Serves as an indispensable "building block" for products operating across a wide range of pH levels and temperatures.

High Purity: Industrial-grade quality (≥98%) ensures the stability of polymerization reactions and the absence of unwanted by-products.

Storage & Transportation

Store in dry, cool, and well-ventilated warehouses in original packaging, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Storage temperature should not exceed 25–30 °C.
Avoid contact with strong oxidizers, acids, alkalis, as well as iron and copper salts to prevent spontaneous polymerization.
Transportable by all types of covered transport in accordance with the regulations for the carriage of dangerous goods (the substance is toxic; strict use of PPE is required during handling).
