Acrylamide (AM) | Premium Polymerization Monomer | CAS 79-06-1
Overview
Acrylamide (AM) is a white, odorless, and highly reactive crystalline solid. As the fundamental building block for water-soluble polymers, it is globally recognized as the essential precursor for synthesizing Polyacrylamide (PAM). Powered by modern bio-catalytic hydration technology, high-purity Acrylamide crystals are the uncompromising backbone of global municipal water treatment, enhanced oil recovery (EOR), and advanced papermaking industries.
Product Description
Acrylamide (AM) is a white, highly reactive crystalline solid. As the fundamental building block for water-soluble polymers, it is globally recognized as the essential precursor for synthesizing Polyacrylamide (PAM). Powered by modern bio-catalytic hydration technology, high-purity Acrylamide crystals are the uncompromising backbone of global municipal water treatment, enhanced oil recovery (EOR), and advanced papermaking industries.
At Shandong Yinglang Chemical Co., Ltd., established in 2011, we supply massive volumes of Premium Acrylamide Crystals to multinational PAM gigafactories and oilfield service conglomerates. Produced via state-of-the-art microbiological catalysis, our Acrylamide is completely free of copper ions and features exceptionally low iron content. Operating rigorously under Class 6.1 Dangerous Goods protocols, we ensure our monomer delivers unparalleled reactivity.
For the synthesis of Ultra-High Molecular Weight (UHMW) PAM used in oilfields, heavy metal impurities must be strictly eliminated. Typical specifications:
| Purity (Acrylamide) | ≥ 98.0% |
|---|---|
| Moisture / Water | ≤ 0.8% |
| Iron (Fe) | ≤ 2 ppm |
| Sulfate (SO4) | ≤ 10 ppm |
| pH Value (20% solution) | 6.0 - 7.5 |
- Polyacrylamide (PAM) Synthesis: Polymerized to create anionic, cationic, and non-ionic PAM, the world's most widely consumed high-efficiency flocculants for municipal and industrial wastewater.
- Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR): Synthesized into UHMW PAM, which acts as a critical viscosifier in oilfield flooding to drastically increase crude oil extraction yields.
- Papermaking Industry: Formulated into retention and drainage aids to optimize paper machine efficiency.
- Chemical Grouting: Polymerized to seal underground structures and dams against water ingress.
Older chemical hydration processes (using copper catalysts) often leave trace copper ions in the Acrylamide monomer, which prematurely terminates the polymer chain during PAM synthesis. Yinglang Chemical utilizes advanced 3rd-generation microbiological catalysis. This entirely eliminates copper impurities and restricts Iron (Fe) to ≤ 2 ppm. The result is a pristine monomer that empowers your reactors to consistently achieve Ultra-High Molecular Weights (exceeding 25 million Daltons) essential for demanding oilfield applications.
Because Acrylamide is highly toxic and prone to caking, we utilize heavy-duty packaging for secure ocean transit:
- 1000 KG / 500 KG UN-approved Jumbo Bags (FIBC) with UV-resistant coatings (Recommended for continuous PAM manufacturing).
- 25 KG Multi-wall Kraft paper bags with heavy-duty PE inner liners.
- Transport Classification: Classified as Class 6.1 (Toxic Substance).
- UN Number: UN 2074 | Packing Group: III
- Handling Precautions: EXTREME DANGER. Severe neurotoxin. Toxic if absorbed through intact skin or inhaled. Readily polymerizes if exposed to heat/UV. Operators MUST wear full-body hazmat suits and respirators. Store in a cool, dark DG facility.
