Kategorie: Polyacrylamid

Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a synthetic polymer widely used in various industries, including water treatment, agriculture, petroleum, and papermaking. It is a water-soluble polymer formed by the polymerization of acrylamide monomers.

In water treatment, polyacrylamide is primarily utilized as a flocculant and coagulant aid. It is commonly used in municipal water treatment, wastewater treatment, and industrial processes that require solid-liquid separation. In agriculture, it is employed as a soil conditioner and erosion control agent. In petroleum production, it is used as a thickening agent in drilling fluids and enhanced oil recovery processes. In the papermaking industry, it can improve paper strength and retention of fillers.
