Polyacrylamide is a type of plastic polymer used in a variety of applications, including water treatment, oil and gas production, and papermaking. It is a synthetic polymer composed of acrylamide subunits, and is produced by free radical polymerization of acrylamide. It is a white, granular solid that is highly soluble in water and is used as a flocculant, thickener, and suspending agent. Polyacrylamide is used in a variety of industries, including water treatment, oil and gas production, and papermaking. In water treatment, it is used to remove suspended solids, reduce turbidity, and improve water clarity. In oil and gas production, it is used to reduce water loss and improve oil recovery. In papermaking, it is used to improve paper strength and reduce dusting. Polyacrylamide is produced by a number of companies, including BASF, SNF Floerger, Kemira, and SNF Holding Company. It is also available from a variety of distributors, such as Dow Chemical, AkzoNobel, and Ashland. Show Less Read more
